Congratulations to the French Deaf Football Team for winning the European Championship 2024, an event that took place in Antalya, Turkey, from May 20 to June 1, 2024. In a breathtaking final, Les Bleus beat world number 1 Ukraine with a score of 3 goals to 2 after extra time, crowning a European campaign in which France remained unbeaten.

In addition to this title, several members of the French team received individual awards for their outstanding performances:
 - Romain Mathieu, the team's coach, was voted best coach of the championship.
 - Striker Antoine Le Bigaut was named best player of the championship.
 - Nélio Carré was named best young U21 hopeful.
