Formed in 2009, Team EDF is made up of 17 committed sportspeople. Made up of both disabled and able-bodied athletes, five of its members are also Group employees. Three watchwords drive the athletes in this elite group: diversity, performance, and commitment.



 

Led by the high-profile ambassador Alain Bernard, Team EDF is home to multi-medal winning champions that excel in sports as varied as fencing, table tennis, and boxing. Water sports – swimming, canoeing/kayaking, rowing – to which EDF provides particularly close support, are strongly represented in Team EDF, as are disabled sports that we are committed to supporting.

Whether they be able-bodied like Charlotte Bonnet or disabled athletes like Élodie Lorandi, Group employees like Thomas Baroukh and Marie-Amélie Le Fur or sponsored athletes, all members of Team EDF share two things in common:

• An impressive track record: at the Rio 2016 and Olympic and PyeongChang 2018 Paralympic games, Team EDF athletes walked away with a total of 15 medals, including 6 golds.
• These elite athletes are as committed as they are talented, in their sports as in their everyday lives: every year, in addition to their sporting objectives, Team EDF champions get involved with events at which the Group is a partner. Their role: to promote sport for all, have fun with the general public, and transmit messages in line with our values.

Through Team EDF, EDF transmits shared values like performance, team spirit, and expanding comfort zones.

All of the Team EDF athletes are the perfect embodiment of these values.
