Today, as you may have expected, we had another match! This time, we again went to Oldenzaal. First, we had lunch ~in Germany~ at Lise’s place.    However, the first problem arose even before leaving. Willy lost the keys for her car… After a quick search, she found them! Where were they? In the lock on the outside of the car of course!    Then we made our way to the hall. During this short drive, we did come to one conclusion: Willy looks like a sweet and lovely girl, but when she is behind the whee... Lees meer

2 weeks ago, we played our final cup match. We had already lost our first two games unfortunately, but that didn’t bring our spirits down. Since we weren’t advancing anyway, at least the pressure was off and we could just focus on having fun and getting to know eachother in the field.  We kicked off the evening with a delicious pasta pesto dinner at Lara’s place, and we also introduced Anna to the Harambee doorgeefsysteem, very important of course! After dinner, we faced the classic challenge: gettin... Lees meer

  Game day 04 October 2025   TheLaW signing in with the news of the day… You know what they say. “Third times the charm”, “three is the magic number” “If at first you don’t succeed try, try and try again”, “All good things comes in three”, “third time, right time” On Saturday we had our first match of the season but our third match as a team. A lot of pressure because I always believed the way you start is the pace you keep during the season. So you either start good or go home. So... Lees meer

Today was our first official match of the season! And now you're thinking, huh, where were they? Unfortunately, we thought the same about you, our supporters, but we understand it was confusing that we were already shining on the field at 11:00 in the morning. With a cup of coffee or tea, we started the day in the sports canteen, recovering like drowned cats after the rain. During the match, we realized our diet had been a bit too much spinach lately, as our serves were a bit too far a few times. Luckily, w... Lees meer

We started the evening nice, we ended the evening not so nice. We had a really good dinner with Gents 6. Then we took a wrong turn and were late. But it was fine. We lost 0-4. :(    Then we went to cheer on gents 6. They won in the fifth set! Jildou and Lieke were really good influencers (check out our Instagram!)    Also there was a screaming man that sounded like a seagull. He could have a job at the market on a Saturday. Loud man.  At the end we also ended up in a Twentse version of oktoberfest, gre... Lees meer

Gamenight 25 sept 2025   Alright let’s do this one more time. TheLaW signing in with the blogpost. I told you next time we will win right? Well we DID……not. I’m not mad though. I saw fire in my team, killer instincts, the desire to be the best.. its just things didn’t go our way this time.   We played against a team in a class higher than ours, so it was to be expected that we would had to fight hard. We came in as the underdogs. Let me describe the sets for you.   Set 1: The Iron wall. During ... Lees meer

Let me explain how this goes… My name is TheLaW_. After each match I will come up here and rant about how well we played or how the refs f’d us up… Losing is never our fault. That is a fact!   So, you know how it is. New school year, new teammates, for some of us new team. On Friday September 12th, we had our first home match against Vips Bardot HS2.    We did the usual, go to a teammate’s house, ate together, had some laughs, some bonding. You know all in preparation for the game. We thought we ... Lees meer

Today we already had our third match of the season! This time, we traveled the long long distance to Oldenzaal.    Of course, beforehand, we shared a nice lunch at Marlijn’s house. And then it was time to head to the game.    Am I going to talk about the results of the game? Of course not!!! You know our blogs by now, right?! However, quality wise, we definitely improved as the game went on.    Was there a reason we improved so well? Hmmm let me think…. I can mention a few! First of all, Herwin de... Lees meer

The week after our first, and very successful, cup match, we were ready to go again. It was Twente '05's turn (you know, that football club) to compete against our unstoppable team.  In high spirits, we got changed and headed to the hall. There we had to wait a while, because another match was still in full swing on our court. Fortunately, it didn't take long before the referee's whistle announced the end of the set. Now we could get started. Right? To our horror, we saw that the teams switched sides, and ... Lees meer

Daar zijn we alweer! Na de wedstrijd van afgelopen zaterdag hadden we eergisteren (woensdag) alweer de volgende en laatste bekerwedstrijd uit de poulefase. Deze mooie woensdagavond begon bij Nienke thuis waar een verzadigende pasta pesto werd bereid. Onder het genot van de luide muziek was het alleen wat lastiger om de bel van de voordeur te horen en dus de deur te openen voor hongerige teamgenootjes… Nadat iedereen uiteindelijk was binnengelaten, had gegeten, en de afwas was gedaan, vertrokken we in onze...
