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... Lees meer

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... Lees meer

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!  ... Lees meer

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... Lees meer

Aloha reader(s), Let us take you to the tropical vibes of last Saturday, when we played a match, had a nice team date with Gents 2, and wrapped up the day with the team presentations. First up, we faced Eurosped Pollux in our first competition match. It did not start smoothly: there was some confuction about which court we would be playing on: the middle court or the left one? Initially, it seemend like it would be the left court, but soon we heard that we had to play on the middle one. And later, just when... Lees meer

Last Saturday, 5th of October, the MM1 team had a chance to play their first 3rd division match against LIVO HS1. Going into the game, the tensions were high, however our fighters were ready to face the opponent and prepared to bash some balls into their side of the court. LIVO is a team that does not give up and we were ready to destroy their fighting spirit. The first set began with a few service mistakes from both sides, however after that we began our road to victory with the first attack by Martin, who... Lees meer

De vader van Lise zei achteraf: “Echt universitair volleybal en alsnog niks van posities snappen.”. Ondanks dat hij een heel goed punt maakt, wil ik deze blog gebruiken om op academische wijze een filosofisch principe te testen. Zo kunnen wij bewijzen dat we wel degelijk universitaire klasse bereiken als team. Het principe wat we vandaag onder de loep nemen: het gaat niet om de bestemming, maar de reis ernaartoe.  Voordat we op reis kunnen, moeten we natuurlijk eerst goed voorbereiden. Dat begon met le...

  *For english read below*   Beste Volgers, Dit weekend was het dan zo ver, de eerste competitie wedstrijd van het machtige en prachtige Harambee Deux. De heren mochten aantreden tegen het ensemble van Isivol heren 1. Voorafgaand aan de wedstrijd werd er nog in geur en kleur nagepraat over de CoBo van de dag ervoor. De CoBo had weer zijn tol geeist, in de vorm van Chiels lever en Jaspers teen.    Oplettende volgers herinneren zich nog de bekerwedstrijd die eindigde in een 3-2 overwinning voor de heren n...

This Saturday, our volleyball team took to the court for an exciting match, and I’m thrilled to share that we emerged victorious in our first game of the season with a score of 3-1! The match showcased our hard work and dedication, as we won the first three sets with impressive teamwork and solid execution. It was rewarding to see our training pay off as we communicated effectively and supported each other throughout the game. We lost the fourth set due to the fact that we couldn't build up the momentum a... Lees meer
