The second 4-0 for ladies 7!

Another week, another match. The team dinner was nice, and the vide was good, so we were ready to go! But our opponent was late, so we had to wait anxiously for their arrival. Six young girls walked onto the pitch, no coach, no substitutes. The six young girls turned out to be decent players as individuals, but were not very coherent as a team. When you put that against us, a well oiled machine, the score was already predetermined to turn out in our favour. The real match for us was the question, how many p... Read more

Catastrophic beachlanding against Eurosped Pollux

Our landing at the start of the season began with a match against Eurosped Pollux. We had to wait a bit longer than expected because all the teams playing before us decided that it was a nice idea to have a fifth set. In the first set, we started off fine being the first to reach 25 points! Our opponent had 24 points at the time and managed to beat us in this set. The 'beating us' part continued for the rest of the match, but we did come up with a great yell. After the match, we had a delightful teamdate wi... Read more

Going for some golf with Markel-Up HS1🏌️

Last friday, the gents of Fore met up at the clubhouse for a good session of golfing against Markel-Up HS1. After a refreshing coffee at the clubhouse, we headed to the green. For the first hole, we beat Markel-Up to it with a hole in one ⛳. However, in the next three holes, Markel-Up beat us to it and the day ended with 1 hole for the gents of Fore and 3 holes for Markel-Up. It was not the result we hoped for, but it was a great day on the green. FORE!🏌️... Read more

Possible rule change?

Dear Moffel and Viertje fans,   Already a bit more then a week ago, our second match took place. We had to go to Bentelo, of which Tom thought it was way too far, so he decided not to join. Luckily, Inez was able to step up and help us out. Therefore, we had a nice dinner, and went off to the match in time.... Just kidding, there has to be a bit of sensation in Moffel and Viertje, and therefore Julia decided to join a bit too late. The nice preparation turned into thinking of a backup line-up during the ri... Read more

First win of the season

Harambee HS 2 VS Eurosped Pollux HS 1        3-1      25-18, 22-25, 25-15, 25-13 As our oponents were placed similarly to us in the league, this was an important match for us to establish our position in our pool. From the beggining we felt confident that we could take the fight to them, rather than have to respond to their performance. Keeping energies high throughout the match, led us to conquering our first victory. In the last two sets we took complete control over the match and left Eurosped Pol... Read more

Swieber stole all our stuff!

On the lovely evening of Friday the 29th of September, ladies 7 had a match plannend against Devoc Dames 4 in Delden. With the winning of 4-0 of the last match in their mind, there was a lot of good hopes for winning this match too.  But then suddenly some weird things were happening with some stuff of us… We almost forgot our balls?! We had to make a little detour but eventually almost all of us made it to the train. Except for Merijn and Janneke who had to get the balls. What a filthy move of you Swieb... Read more

Limited space for beautiful peaks

After playing our first match last week, we have now completed our second match, which also happened to be our first away game. Just like you cannot start preparing for Christmas early enough, we arrived at the hall in Saasveld well in time. However, the door was still locked, and the key had to be fetched first. This did not deter us from starting our own Christmas party; while we waited outside, the first notes of "All I Want for Christmas" filled the air. As we were changing inside, we added to our wish ... Read more

Missing Man Mystery

Rivo-Harambee 2  4-0  27-25 25-15 25-14 25-20 The team was already aware that our opponents were formidabile, especially after their showing against Heren 3 last week. Despite specialized preparations to deal with their squad we still faced issues dealing with their team, who was already more experienced playing with eachother. Despite this, and the loss of every set in the match, we identified that the team continues to make steady progress and improvements. Each game we feel a little more cohesive. In m... Read more

Sprint Race Oldenzaal Grand Prix 2023

Welcome to the race report of the first sprint race of this season. Despite being called a sprint race, this race also offered the opportunity to earn 5 points. The two teams that started on pole position were the always cheerful and best-dressed team of Harambee, known as Ferradrie, and the impressive courreurs from Eurospet in Oldenzaal. After filling up the engines with some high-octane fuel, the cars were ready to show us their F1-like pace as they headed to the opponents' circuit for the first time thi... Read more
