Le Ballon Season Finale

Home News

Arguably the coolest independent league in football draws a line at the end of season one in emphatic fashion.

The spirit of Le Ballon is infectious to say the very least. Cool people, playing sharp football, kitted out in the finest attire and all the while supported by loyal locals. A bar dedicated to football that spilled out in the shape of a football league; It's the reason we all played football manager until we reached the 'I should now include Football Manager on My CV' addiction rating - they created their teams, branded them up and even played on a pitch in the shadows of a professional club (Red Star FC). Their story is one that we have documented in Issue 3 of the SoccerBible magazine.

Some description

Their first season as a league drawing to a close, the fantastic photographers at Studio White have helped present this finale in a style befitting the league as 'Atletico Paris' took home the trophy in the inaugural season. Stellar.

Explore and experience the brilliant Le Ballon in the latest issue of SoccerBible issue 3. On sale now. You'll see a lot of players sporting the Nike FootballX collection which is available now from Nike stockists including Pro-Direct Soccer.
