Antoine Deschamps

Antoine Deschamps will carry the Olympic torch. This is his story:

Young Antoine pours his heart and soul into community life in Camaret-sur-Aigues, with a focus on sport. Every week, he goes to the schools in the village to teach sport. As well as an instructor at leisure centres and the youth club, Antoine is the French national roller skating champion and trains children and grown-ups at the Association Roller Camarétois.

But wait, there is more: Antoine was also the driving force between the award of the "Terre de Jeux 2024" label to the village. He teamed up with the Departmental Olympic Committee of Vaucluse to organise an Olympic and Paralympic week. Student parents, teachers, local authorities and the inhabitants of Camaret-sur-Aigues in general hold him in high esteem. Carrying the Olympic torch is a fantastic reward for his dedication to his community.
