A warm welcome to all our readers. Today we are back to give an overview of the recent games the fighters of Harambee Heren 1 have had. Starting things off with a home match, that almost did not happen, against Skopein Wivoc HS1. Our opponent wanted to cancel the game due to injuries and lack of players, however, we were already in the mindset of playing and did not want to cancel. On the game day we were unsure whether our opponent would even show up. To our fortune, they did show, but only with 6 players.... Read more

On the 18th of December, Heren 1 played another round in the cup match against a promotie class team - Dros-Alterno HS 3. It was a perfect opportunity to have a game before meeting Time-Out 75 HS1 for the last match of the calendar year. The game began well, and we had a good lead, we had a good passing, were scoring well, however struggled in blocking and defending. We managed to make things especially interesting, allowing our opponents to tie the score at 23:23. This is the type of suspenseful game Wybre... Read more

Already a week after our previous game, we were faced against Monica’s arch-nemesis, Fysio Aastad HS1. The far fetching rivalry promised a good game full of fighting and that it was. The game started off with trading points, after which Wybren went off on a 6-point serving-spree, extending our lead to 7:1. However, unable to score, we gave away our lead and gave the opponent a fighting chance. In the middle of the set we managed to get ahead once more, having a 5-6-point lead. Winning the initial set felt... Read more

Aloha reader(s), On Friday, November 29, it was time for our away match against Kuipers Flevoll Ladies 2. This match occurred later in the evening, so after dinner, there was plenty of time for a nice game with everyone. Once we were done with that, it was time to make our way to the match location. After changing clothes, we could start the warm-up. Here it turned out that the referee was not good at watching the clock, and we are not talking about the fact that the clock in that hall had not yet been mov... Read more

Aloha reader(s), Saturday December 7th, we had to play a match against Apollo 8 DS5. There was a lot of audience for encouragement, partly because it was home weekend, but also because Apollo had brought quite some spectators from Borne. During the cup games we had already played against them, in which we had lost 3-0 (25-19, 25-18, 25-18). So, we knew it was going to be a tough match, in which there was not much room to fall behind. Fortunately, we played a nice match, in which mainly the service was not s... Read more

On the 7th of December our team was designated with the duty to protect our home grounds against the third place in the Promotion B class. The team was dedicated to win, regardless of the current positioning of the league teams. The game started smoothly, with us winning the first set. However, some things went wrong and we started to trip over ourselves, losing the next two sets. Winning the 4th set, we knew that victory was close. However, in a close game of 14-14, we lost 2 points and the game was over i... Read more

Het is was weer thuisweekend, en dus speelde jullie favoriete dames 3 weer een wedstrijd op vrijdag avond. Nog altijd schitterend in de nieuwe shirtjes namen wij het deze week op tegen de dames van Aastad, die eerste staan in de competitie. Oftewel, niks te verliezen dus. Vantevoren werd er door een deel van het team samen gegeten in de sportkantine. De rest kwam later aanwandelen. Op het laatste moment bleek Lise toch niet fit genoeg, en dus speelden we met 11 speelsters (dankjewel Anouk) onze wedstrijd. Z... Read more

Geachte lieverds,    We hebben u helaas nog niet verteld over onze laatste thuiswedstrijd. Hiervoor ons excuus. Bij deze nemen we u graag nog even mee naar vrijdag 22 November jongstleden.   De jongens waren vol zelfvertrouwen en wisten wat ze te doen stond. 4-0 winnen zou betekenen dat zij weer op de eerste plaats in de competitie plaats mogen nemen. Hier was iedereen dan ook vol op gefocust. De gehele week was er getraind om gebruik te kunnen maken van de zwakke puntjes bij Devoc dus er kon klaarblijke... Read more

Dag lieve kindertjes,   Afgelopen zaterdag was het dan weer tijd. Met het verlies van de week er voor nog fris in het geheugen, moesten onze mannen aantreden in Wierden. De mannen uit wierden hadden een niet nader te noemen spits uit Amsterdam die hen aanmoedigde, maar dit kon de godenzonen in oranje en paars niet imponeren.    De eerste set was bloedstollende spannend, want onze jongens wisten maarliefst 6 maal op setpoint te komen. Maar blijkbaar vonden ze in wierden 1 setpoint genoeg dus werd deze set... Read more

Lief heren 2 legioen,   Dit weekend was er weer van alles te doen. We speelden de dag na 5 december, tijd voor pittige wedstrijd als Gember. De tegenstander werd gesponsord door Tuc, maar harambee deux geeft geen fuck. Er werd met 3-1 gewonnen thuis, wel winst maar het set verlies was niet pluis.    Gelukkig konden de mannen dit snel vergeten, want er werd weer met pitchers bier gesmeten. De dag voor gala helemaal sjikke, uitgezonderd dan voor die dikke. Hij was als enige voor wedstrijdleiding niet brak,... Read more
