The CPSF brings its headquarters to INSEP !

Welcomed by the General Director of INSEP, Ghani Yalouz and his teams, the CPSF has returned to the temple of French sport…

The French Paralympic and Sports Committee is the equivalent of the French National Olympic and Sports Committee, but for Paralympians. This organisation, founded in 1992, aims to promote the unity of the Paralympic movement in France in close connection with its constituent bodies ; to represent, to defend and to coordinate the French Paralympic movement internationally and in particular with the IPC (the International Paralympic Committee) ; to encourage the development of high-level sport and sport for all in connection with affiliated federations ; to organise and to structure the French delegation during the Paralympic Games and international competitions under the direct aegis of the IPC. The CPSF is the only interlocutor of the IPC for France.

 

The French Paralympic and Sports Committee has recently been increased and has taken its headquarters to the benchmark establishment of French sport, an incredible opportunity as its  president, Emmanuelle Assman, confides :

 

« I would like to warmly thank Ghandi Yalouz and all the INSEP teams for the quality of their welcome. We immediately felt at home in this exceptional place. This installation in the temple of high level sport is a new step in  the development of the French Paralympic and Sports Committee. Our resources have been increased and the team is strengthened with one goal : to serve athletes and the Paralympic movement. »

 

Alongside Emmanuelle Assmann, the CPSF team is now composed of six members :

  • Elie Patrigeon, Chief of Staff
  • Bénédicte Normand, Performance Director
  • Jean Minier, Director of Development
  • Pierre Houseaux, Responsable for the classifications / Paralympic Games Logistics
  • Héléna Haverland, Communication Manager
  • Marion Watelle, Digital Communications and Press Relations Manager
