New Year's tournament and opening new playing hall

Competition
The programme for the spring competition 2025 is known.
Competition secretary Alex Brandt has sent this to all players by email.
A copy can be found on this website : youth and seniors.
The competition page also contains a lot of information.
Walkway to new venue
On 1 November, we moved to the new school right next to our old hall.
Unfortunately, due to construction activities, access to the hall changes from day to day.
The board is trying to get a clear and safe access.
You can find the latest known routes on the contact page.
Competition-playing guests (or those who have difficulty using a staircase)
should use the red route (see contact page) from the Landtong:
you’ll end up at the main entrance (the school entrance of De Horizon).
There, press the bell for the gym and after being let in,
take the lift (immediately left) to the gym on the first floor.
Update 29 November 2024:
Unfortunately, despite repeated emails and ‘complaints’ to the builder and the local council, they have still not managed to get decent lighting at the back and along the side of the building. Until this is resolved, everyone is advised to simply walk the old route along the front of the building (i.e. just park at the Landtong again) and ring the bell.
If you ring the bell at the front of the school (when people are playing in the gym), take the lift up. NB Use the gym bell!
After ringing the bell at the other entrance (Landtong side), go up the stairs.

Champions
In the autumn competition, two teams became champions: junior team 2 and senior team 4.
Junior team 2
On Saturday 30 November, our 2nd junior team played their second-to-last match. A 5-5 draw would be enough to secure 1st place in their 5th class pool.
Naturally, against the opponent ranked second in the pool, they were also aiming for the maximum result. And what a result: it was 10-0!
Especially the smallest player Pengxuan had to pull out all the stops to still win twice in 5 sets. The other players Dimana and Pengyu, as we have come to expect from them, played keenly even after reaching 5-0.
In the picture, 4th player Elisa is missing because she was not drafted today. Nevertheless, she too contributed considerably to this wonderful championship. There will be flowers for her at the club on Monday, and maybe we will make a picture of the champions with all players in it.
This article was updated with a photo of the full team.
Congratulations to all with this wonderful result!
Senior team 4
Our team with Viktor, Aset, Raymond, William and Aravindhan became champions in the 3rd class after a blood-curdling denouement. They went into the last round of play with only a 1-point lead and a worse mutual result so every point was super important.
Amstelveen 4 got off to a flying start against JOVO 5 and after three simple wins in three games it was already 3-0. The double was different, after an exciting 5 setter the 4th point was raked in with 11-9 in the last game.
Next was Raymond, who had not played much this competition. He was clearly not in shape yet and unfortunately lost in 4 games. Aset and Viktor put the team back on track with two wins in three games.
Unfortunately for Raymond, in his last game he had to congratulate his opponent with 11-9 in the 5th game. There was still some confusion because the competitor’s score in the NTTB app changed a few times but because Viktor and Aset showed their best game this evening and won their last games, all uncertainty came to an end with an 8-2 victory. TEAM 4 CHAMPIONS!!!
The championship was toasted in the canteen with a bottle of Palinka brought by Viktor. Gentlemen, congratulations and good luck in the 2nd class.
