Four recruits and a new assistant coach at Basket Landes

A few days after winning another French championship title, Basket Landes has announced its first roster moves for the 2025-2026 season. In a press release, the club officially announced the signing of four new players and a new assistant coach alongside Julie Barennes.

Four new players for the 2025-2026 season

French national team player Camille Droguet (1.78m, 25), runner-up in the French championship with Tarbes Gespe Bigorre, has signed for the next two seasons with Basket Landes. The former ASVEL Féminin youth academy player hopes to take her game to the next level under Julie Barennes. Given significant responsibility at Tarbes where she averaged 10.6 points, 4.3 rebounds and 5.7 assists in 32 minutes, she will bring her quickness and looks to confirm her potential.

In the frontcourt, Basket Landes has secured the experience and efficiency of Marie Gülich (1.96m, 30). In Mont-de-Marsan, the German international – who replaces her compatriot Luisa Geiselsoder, who left for Mersin in Turkey – will bring her effectiveness in the paint. Last season, the former Gdynia and Valencia player competed in the Taiwanese championship, averaging 14.5 points, 10.6 rebounds and 2.5 assists in 26 minutes.

Another major addition for the club is Julie Wojta (1.83m, 36). Known for her defensive skills and leadership, she will bring all her experience to Julie Barennes’ squad. Having previously played for Angers, where she first teamed up with future teammate Leïla Lacan, and then ASVEL Féminin, she averaged 8.1 points, 6.3 rebounds, 3 assists and 2 steals for a 12.7 efficiency rating in 28 minutes.

Finally, Basket Landes has confirmed the signing of Becky Massey (1.86m, 25) for two seasons. After three years in Spain, the Belgian international aims to establish herself in the French championship.
