Les Mariannes 92

What Les Mariannes 92 does

Les Mariannes 92 is a French women's professional volleyball club headquartered in Levallois-Perret (Hauts-de-Seine), operating a professional team, an Elite development squad, and a recognized training academy (CFCP). The professional team competes in the top-tier Ligue A Féminine (branded Saforelle Power 6) and participates in the European CEV Champions League, winning back-to-back French national championships in 2024 and 2025 and securing the first-ever victory for a French club in the CEV Champions League in December 2025. The club plays home matches at the Palais des Sports Marcel-Cerdan (approximately 2,500 capacity) and runs a youth academy with up to 12 trainees per year combining volleyball training with academic education.

The club is a private association under French law (association loi 1901), controlled by the Peters family since 2019 and led by President and CEO Philippe Peters (former McKinsey, ESSEC). Its product surface consists of three integrated tiers (Professional Team, Elite Team, Academy) plus a merchandise line distributed via a Ninesquared e-commerce partnership. The business model is multi-stream: match-day ticket sales through BilletWeb, corporate sponsorships (managed via Team Spirit Agency), and merchandise sales, supplemented by institutional support from the Hauts-de-Seine Department, the City of Levallois-Perret, Paris, and the Île-de-France region. The customer base splits between individual fans (long-tail ticket buyers) and corporate sponsors drawn by visibility, CSR, and diversity initiatives aligned with women's elite sport.

The go-to-market is primarily direct-to-consumer for fans (website, social media on Instagram, Facebook, and LinkedIn, newsletter, PR coverage in L'Équipe and Le Parisien) and partnership-driven for commercial revenue. Distribution channels include online ticketing, the official boutique, venue box office, and a Business Club offering VIP boxes and hospitality for corporate partners. The club is currently investing in European competition capacity, youth development infrastructure, and a renewed technical staff for the 2025-2026 season.
