This Sunday the now complete Gents 2 team was able to completely win their pool of the tournament. Although the team encountered some rough spots within individual sets, they still were able to secure every single one. Hopefully this dominant showing is a sign that the team will be able to start the season strong despite containing an almost completely new roster. The highlight of the tournament was the last set, in which the team was able to close the final game in 25 - 8, closing the tournament in style.... Read more

  Last Saturday, we played our real final homegame🏐 of this season with the Mix Allstars!!!!!🥳 You were there, right?!🎉 We think so🤔, because we heard you scream very loud.🔊 For them.🥲 But we understand: if we would have been on the stands, we would also support them.😍 What a team, what an appearance, what a vibe.🥵 Only after two practices together as a team?!?!?!?!2️⃣ And we didn't even talk about their coach yet...🤩   During all sets🔢, both teams were trying to find bal...

As you must understand🫶🏼, in group 1 we are very busy with learning the difference between a circle🟧 and a square🟣, and how to eat without slurping and munching🍽️. You know, the usual stuff🐅. So the teamblog is late. So don't cry!!!😭⛔ Because we won!!!!!!😎🥇 Just like last time against the orange ladies (* read this in Carien voice *: ORANGEEEEEEEEUH🧡) lost from us with 3-2.🏁 And 3-2 = 1, so actually, we should be on the first place after this game.😱1️⃣👁️ In t...

Now very quickly🏃🏽‍♀️ after our game against the orange ladies (* read this in Carien voice *: ORANGEEEEEEEEUH🧡), we had to play another game on a Monday evening.🥱💤 Who does that?😒 So we had to drive for ONE HOUR1️⃣, which is SIXTY MINUTES6️⃣0️⃣, which is DEFINITELY TOO LONG FOR A GAME ON MONDAY EVENING.😤 Yes, your favourite group 1 was not happy and also not so awake🗯️. We started at 20:30h = almost bedtime.🛌🏼 The yellow ladies were there with a completely ... Read more

Still recovering from our game the day before and without our trusted captain Stef we got on our bikes and headed to the sportscentre. The opponent was fearful of our razor lined caps and had tried to postpone the match. Lennart convinced them that facing gents 9 is a hard task no matter what day they played us, so they might as well get it over with. Upon arriving at the sportscentre and starting our warming up we were delighted to see a team in our poule that wasn’t filled with old guys. As it was the f... Read more

With a Friday evening match and the peaky-nineders you never know what you’re going to get. Especially when facing a higher ranked team which beat us 4-0 in our previous encounter. We had long started our warming up when the opponent was yet to be seen. The intimidation in the away match earlier this season had clearly paid off as they started the match without halve of their team being present. The intimidation and loud chanting in the tiny hall in Langeveen worked so well that they only arrived when the... Read more

After a drive to the small village of Diepenheim and searching for the sportscenter we got into the warming up. Time out tried to unsettle us by playing loud music during the warming up but the peaky nineders are hardly unsettled by some music. As our coaches could not be present we had Wesley as a coach. Wesley rewarded Stef and Tommie, for their great performance in the vestingbar the evening before, by making them starters. For Stef this did not last long as within the first set he landed on the foot of ... Read more

We played against team 6 today. Sadly born got injured badly during the training few weeks back and therefore couldnt play. Yet he always showed up to every match and supported us with his whoo whoo and made us win today with 3-1!!!   ... Read more

We came, we saw, we won. Or so did Mix 11 think. After aceing the first set and destroying them in the second, people already started to celebrate. But then the eggs appeared and everything changed. Mix 12 was powered by the eggs while Mix 11 was fearing the punishment. And with each lost set, the eggs became bigger in Mix 11's face. One would say too big because before TJ could see a volleyball, the last set was gone. Gone... everything. Only the eggs on our backs stayed! ~TJ... Read more
