Reunion for former members of
Table Tennis Association Amstelveen!
Highly successful reunion (former) members
On 25 March, the moment was there:
The reunion of Table Tennis Association Amstelveen, formerly NMB/VDO,
as part of our 75th anniversary!
Over 75 (former) members had braved wind, rain and (sometimes) long traffic jams to attend this convivial event.
After a welcome drink, the reunion was formally opened by chairman Arjan Verburg.
Then, while enjoying free snacks and drinks, everyone could (re)meet old acquaintances to their heart’s content.
A number of tables were set up in the hall, allowing fans to test whether they still had the old ball touch. They were eagerly taken advantage of.
In the canteen, a table had been set up with old annual reports, club magazines, photos and other materials that our secretary had unearthed from the archives. This table was well-visited. After all, it is still nice to come across your name in a club magazine from 30 years ago or to see your younger self again in a photo from many years (and sometimes many kilos and hairs) ago.
The participants found the reunion very successful and afterwards expressed their appreciation for the organisers and volunteers who contributed to it.
This tastes like more!
And fortunately, we have several more anniversary events planned for next year.
These include:
| • | 28 April | Jazz ('klaverjas') tournament |
| • | 7 May | Clinic Youth and Family tournament |
| • | 20/21 May | Open Tournament Youth/Seniors |
| • | ?? | Clinic 55+ and Doubles Tournament |
| • | 2 September | Closing party anniversary year |
We like it when as many members/family members as possible participate in these activities! See the links for details.
On behalf of the anniversary committee and the board,
Ben Rigter
Secretary TTV Amstelveen
