Finally, after a week of "resting", we had a match with the presence of our ninja Coach Kay! As a regular preparation for the match (forget about the long warm-ups, some members were even late for a short one!), we had a filling dinner at Yasmin's place. Kudos go to chef Anna! One of the team members (Sevinj) proved to be an actual turtle by being 15 mins late to the dinner. But no worries, she cleaned all the dishes and we made it to the match! As opposed to the first game, we had exactly 6 players on the ... Read more

On the grim Saturday afternoon before Halloween, we had our first official battle against Apollo Heren 4. After a practice match during the preparation tournament (which ended in a tie) we were ready to show them who was the better team. To get ready before the match, a lunch was prepared by Darth Trainer at his house, with the help of Bastiaan.  Once in the hall everybody was getting hyped up and ready, and we were ready to score some points. Starting up the first set did not go flawless, A lot of mistak...

Vrijdag 22 oktober had Dames Phineas en Fierb een uitwedstrijd tegen Wevo Dames 5. Na een inspirerende wedstrijdmail van aanvoerder Marte gelezen te hebben had iedereeen er weer zin in! Van tevoren moest er natuurlijk gegeten worden, voor de verandering een keer bij Esmee. Om 15:00 uur stonden Esmee en Anouk al in de keuken om een heerlijke maaltijd te bereiden voor het team.  Om 15:30 moest er al gegeten worden, want we hadden nog een wereldreis voor de boeg naar het prachtige ✨Weerselo✨. Eerst moest... Read more

Last week we had an amazing breakfast with Gents Toverkr8. You might expect that with a little magic everyone could be there at the scheduled time. (Totally misjudged, our bad). Surprisingly Tjerk did not make it to breakfast (or the match), maybe his magic was absorbed by all wine and beers he had the night before. Nonetheless, the pancakes were loveable and set the mood for the day. Yes, there were pancakes with apple, cheese and bacon. And yes, if you want a pancake teamdate, were in! The power of pancak...

Last Friday, we played our first home match of the season. It was also our first pre-match diner together. After the two 4-0 defeats without a diner, hopefully the diner would be the secret ingredient to our success against Aastad. This heavy task of preparing a delicious meal was taken upon by Sander and Quinten. It turned out that our cooks had other plans, as they tried to secure their starting spot by poisoning Frank and Niels with pasta pesto. Fortunately, their scheme was discovered in time by Bastiaa...

As you might have seen in our teammovie, all of ladies 2 has not one, but two loves. What we have not mentioned yet was that the team has a joint second love…  for ‘hard gaan’ or going hard as it translates to in english. Before, during and after the our third official game against Kuiper Flevoll DS2 expression of this love was abundant.    It all started a couple hours before the game, friday 1800 hours to be exact, when the larger part of ladies two gathered with the promise of getting a three co...

Al vroeg in de ochtend mocht de bemanning ontwaken uit hun slaap. Vandaag zouden we ons richting Doetinchem begeven. Bewapend met een woest grote JBL box met uiteraard een microfoon om het aantreden van de manschappen te doen versimpelen. Bij de stoplichten konden toen vrij makkelijk bevelen vanuit de auto geschreeuwd worden. Met belangrijke intel over een bekende tegenstander, toen Mikal nog in een ver ver verleden bij deze club ronddwaalde, konden we de wedstrijd beginnen. Dat begon redelijk, maar daar ... Read more

Heren toverkracht, a journey of champions The magical journey in the magical world of the team Heren Toverkracht continues.

However, many hurdles remain on the road… A familiar voice speaks to them:   “On your way to glory, you find a new opponent. This gang of elders has terrorised the border with Germani... Read more

Last Saturday it was finally time for our second match. We couldn’t play during the first homeweekend, because the match was cancelled by our opponent ☹. Therefore we first have our second away match in Rijssen. Before the match the stormTWOopers had a nice France brunch at 10:45 at our one and only France teammate Thomas. We ate some tasty croissants, eggs, bacon and had some orange juice. After the brunch we drank some coffee to get ready for the trip to Rijssen. At 11:45 we got a text message from or... Read more
