On the 19th of October, our team has travelled a long way in order to beat the team called Morgana DVO Heren 1 that resides in the "other" Hengelo. We won the first two sets with the scores of 25-21 and 25-23. Unfortunately, we could not make this win a clean sheet, as the oppsoing team won the third set with the score of 23-25. However, we made sure to solidify our position in being the better team and won the fourth set with the score of 25-22. Overall, during the entirety of the game we made sure to keep... Read more

On the 12th of October the Harambee fighters faced a new challenger, Hellas H1, who for some reason are trying to be the Greek basketball team. Even though they were playing promotie class last year, we were not underestimating our opponent, as there must’ve been a good reason for their promotion. So the fight started with our lovely supporters in the stands of SC4. The match started well, however we made a lot of our own mistakes. We were missing serves (probably due to the fact that we are training in S... Read more

Het thema van vandaag is: vergeten. Want het begon al met de taart, die was vergeten. Toen werd er nog snel cake mix gehaald, maar werden de extra ingrediënten voor bij de cakemix vergeten. Uiteindelijk is de cake optijd afgekomen, want we hadden alle tijd wegens onze gezellige brunch met heren 9! Om weer terug te komen op het thema “vergeten”, was Emma ook vergeten de druiven te halen. Bovendien was Merijn vergeten de ballen mee te nemen, gelukkig kwam toen heren 9 tot de resque om onze ballen mee naa... Read more

*For english, see below*   Lieve superfan,   voor ik u vertel over het schouwspel van afgelopen zaterdag, willen we u vragen om een gunst. Omdat het bestuur van Harambee, om onverklaarbare redenen, geen marketing budget voor ons wilt vrijstellen vragen we u onze mond tot mond vertegenwoordiger te worden. Stuur dit bericht naar minstens 5 volleybal liefhebbers (die ons nog niet volgen), laat ze @HarambeeDeux volgen en DM ons bewijs. Een van de gelukkigen die dit doet maakt kans op een grote prijs die wij a... Read more

Aloha dear reader(s): Let us take you on another wave-filled journey through our recent match against Twente-Sparta. Herwin thought it would be a good idea to pin a bird on his vest today, but next time he might want to do a little more research on the type of bird... It turned out to be a jinx bird, which affected our performance. After our previous encounter with Twente-Sparta, where we lost 3-1, we hoped to take revenge and secure the victory this time... The first set started promisingly. We rode the wa... Read more

This weekend, we faced Tornax Heren 1 in what turned out to be a nail-biting five-set battle. Tornax came out strong, taking the first two sets with solid play, and an uncommon approach of playing C attacks and putting us on the back foot early. But instead of folding, we regrouped, found our rhythm, and turned the tide, winning the next two sets to even the score. With the momentum on our side and a comeback within reach, we entered the final set with high hopes. However, Tornax quickly gained the upper ha... Read more

October 12th marked our first win of the season after the upset against Gents 9. Gents 10 gave us a good fight, but we knew that this match belonged to us and ended up taking that W with a score of 3-1. Set 1 was a slow start, with points coming our way almost non-stop and we ended up taking a 25-9 set, guaranteeing us a pitcher. We were smelling victory and we were already planning to bankrupt our coach Johannes. We met set 2 with a couple of surprises, as our brother duo had a bit of a hungover problem an... Read more

Start playing volleyball - join the mix - it's nice and chill - (borat impression) NOT!  The first game already put Mix 6 to the test! Having started later than sheduled (more time to warm up, which we used chatting) we clearly won our first set with 10 points. Second set, Mix 6 won after being 8 points behind! We don't talk about the following two sets (other than: Use both hands) Last set it was very spannend. But eventually.. mix 6 came out on top!  ... Read more

Het is weer vrijdag en dus is de volgende wedstrijd van dames 3 biggetjes weer aangebroken. We konden lekker dineren bij Lianne op het onvindbare achterste huis van de witbreuksweg. Lise en Lianne hebben er uitgebreid geëxperimenteerd met het frituren van uitjes. Uiteindelijk werden het iets te knapperige uitjes (men noemt dat ook weleens verbrand). Echter heeft niemand het doorgehad en smaakte de orzo heerlijk! Na de lange fietstocht over campus en nog een koffietje of energiedrankje, konden we eraan begi... Read more
