With a really nice teamdinner in our bellies we started the match with high energy and a bit sick bcause of the full stomachs. Against mix 11 was a really exciting match, with two fingers in our nose we won the first set with 25-17. Keeping up the nice work, the second set was again ours with a close call of 25-23. There was a little dip in the energy, so unfortunately the third set was theirs with 14-25. The fourth set was a nip and tuck race and unfortunately they won with a 2 point difference, 25-27. So ...

We one the first 2 sets quite convincingly, but then the third set was a close set that we barely lost. And despite our best efforts we lost the fourth set aswell. So a final 5 set came, and went. We won quite convincingly. We should have won 3-1 to get those points for the winnerspoule, unfortunately it's all up to the last two matches now... Lees meer

English below!   Dames Heren, jongens, meiden en alles wat hiermee niet omvat is. Bij deze wil ik jullie welkom heten bij het raceverslag wat in de boeken zal gaan als een historische overwinning. Een verslag wat bedoeld is voor de boeken en voor de enkeling die niet op de tribune aanwezig was. Tot onze verbazing zijn er vorige week schokkende cijfers over alle teams van Harambee naar buiten gekomen. Wat wellicht opgevallen is, is dat de courreurs van Ferradri de gemiddelde leeftijd van onze mooie studente... Lees meer

Final Score: HS 2 Win 3-1,  21-25, 19-25, 25-12, 17-25 Being two young teams that were closely positioned in the standings, it was no mystery that Scooby Two squad had something to prove this night.

Once we reached 21 points each, we closed off the set cleanly, leaving nothing up to chance. In the second set we continued with mo... Lees meer

Game score: H2 Win 3-1 27-25, 25-21, 15-25, 25-13 With a close first set, the team slowly began to gain momentum as our spirits grew higher. We found great success as we improved our communication and played patiently against their team. In the fourth set Scooby two team completely lost its focused. The unity we had in the second set vanished as we all appeared to be playing alone on the court. Despite this, the team had a complete change of heart in the last set. It started poorly with the team being signi... Lees meer

the last race of this quadruple-header is upon us. This Saturday we had a race at the infamous 'Veste' track in Borne. Races here are well known for the hot race conditions (poor Mr. Warnaar), slippery track and endless after parties in the paddock.   Our opponents are made up of reserve drivers of the race organisation 'Apollo 8'. This organisation was set up to reach the moon, but are still at it, about 55 years later. In order to gain some traction, they adopted a color scheme similar to ours, so it's t... Lees meer

It is still dark and empty in SC1 when we are about to setup the fields for today's matches. However even though it is dark, there is already a lot of excitement going on, since we have to play against mix 7 today. As indicated by their name, mix 7 has been upping their game quite a bit and has proven to be a worthy opponent during a match, and oh boy... they were.  During the first set, they gave their all and they took it! Our team finally being adjusted to each other (thank you Hilde and Kasia for subbi... Lees meer

On Saturday, November 4, we played a Saturday match for the first time this season. We knew beforehand that it would be a tough game, as we were up against Eurosped Pollux, the number two at the time. The opponents also knew it would be tough, otherwise, why would you have 4 coaches on the sideline. Nevertheless, we went into the match full of confidence and that paid off in a 1-3 win for Harambee! And which set we lost, well, that was, of course, the infamous third set. Anyway, back to the beginning. When ... Lees meer
