On Friday 24 September, all medal winners from Equipe France 2010 were invited to a reception in their honor at the French ministry of health and sport. Speaking at the reception were Mme Roselyne Bachelot-Narquin, minister of health and sport, Bruno Aussenac, President of the FSGL, and Christelle Foucault, 1st VP of the FSGL, FSGL delegate to the FGG, and chair of Equipe France 2010. Mme Bachelot has already served as the patron of the TIP multisport tournament, and has now graciously accepted to serve as the patron of the FSGL.
