According to this weeks League Express, French SL hopefulls UTC could be in for a name change. The name comes from the amalgamation three years ago of two Perpignan teams, XIII Catalan and St Esteve. The current name 'Union Treiziste Catalane' could cause confusion and hardly trips off the tongue. Possible options are to revert to XIII Catalan, or perhaps to be named after their hometown of Perpignan; a third option could be to name the club Catalonia - imagine, future games might be staged in Barcelona.
