By Zak Jackson, MonacoViews Editorial
AS Monaco Basket will appear before the French National Olympic Committee on Thursday to contest a ruling that threatens their place in professional basketball.
AS Monaco Basket's professional status hangs in the balance as the club faces a hearing before the Comité National Olympique et Sportif Français at 10h on Thursday 20 August. The appearance will determine whether the Roca Team retains its place in France's top professional basketball division.
The hearing was originally scheduled for 25 August but has been brought forward at the club's own request, a move that suggests Monaco's basketball operation is pressing hard for a swift resolution. The outcome will have direct consequences for the Principality's professional sports landscape heading into the new season.
