Gents 5 – Set-Up '65 (+ Gents 4)

It has been already more than a week ago when we played our second match, this time against Set-Up ’65 HS 2. Because dhr. Coolman couldn’t come and dhr. Struik had to leave during the fourth set to go to a wedding, we once again requested the aid of dhr van Dongen. I will not go in much detail about the first three sets, simply because they played much better, and we missed a bit of teamwork. We have scored 13, 11 and 16 points against them in the first, second and third set respectively. In the last set we turned this around an we started playing together with joy and we won with 25 – 23.

On another note, last Saturday we played a practice match against gents 4. With 7 man strong we fought, including dhr. Meijerman who substituted as libero, eventually it ended in a 2 – 3 loss.

Coming Friday we play against Time Out ’75 HS 3 in Diepenheim, it promises to be a tough match as they won last Friday against Set-up with 1 – 3.

Lastly at the night of the team presentations, dhr. Oosterveld notified me that it is tradition to end the blogs with a limerick, but since the Wikipedia page about limericks confuses me, I will write you this time a haiku instead.
