In just two years, Sébastien Quintallet has dramatically transformed the Caen HB handball club, elevating them from the bottom of Proligue to the brink of Starligue. Quintallet's demanding approach, deep understanding of elite-level play, and effective coaching methods have revitalized the team, now known as the Vikings. His tenure began in February 2024 when he took over as coach while the team was last in Proligue, aiming to create an immediate impact. This turnaround positions Caen HB as a significant attraction in Caen's collective sports scene, with their next match scheduled against Sarrebourg on Saturday, February 21, 2026, at 8:30 PM.
