The Korfbal
Experience
Korfbal is a game with some interesting twist in the rules, making it sometimes complicated, but keeping the game appealing and exciting. The field and the teams are divided in two halves, where one has to defend, and the other has to go on the offense You cannot cross the half of the field. These sides switch during the half of the game, and inbetween two goals scored. Also, since this was a mixed tournament, the teams were divided by equal m/f opponents, where only m/m and f/f defence was allowed.
Meeting's Log:
Location: Nuland
da TeaM (a.k.a. "Lekker Boeie")
Time: 13.25
First game, half of the team was shamelessly late, and we had to
"borrow" some other members of another team.
Result: Pretty darn
embarrasisng defeat.
Time: 14.15
Second game. No improvement.
Result: Pretty annoying
defeat.
Time: Too agitated to keep
track of time
Third game. I'm REALLY REALLY tired now.
Result: Guess what ? Yeah,
you guessed right. Defeat.
Time: Too headachy to keep
track of time
Fourth game. We're pretty much conditioned to the fact of defeat
now. It's getting unbearable.
Result: Need I repeat
myself ?
Anyway, just take a look at the pictures (we're the white shirts):
Defense...it didn't quite work out.
Offense...that also didn't quite work out.
By now, we've lost with a total of 0-34.
Even this dog was laughing his ass off
Look at our sad sad departure.
And here some shameless undeserved after-game relaxation.
Time: 19:43
NOW the sun is finally showing itself. Hmmfprh.
Sow, who to blame for this all ?
Well, here goes: (some pictures are taken from Angenita's homepage without consent. Nor do I have any consent from the depicted human beings)
Adjeh: For NOT being there, doooh.
Doompie: For cowardly promising to cheer for us from the
sidelines, but ending up not showing up at all.
Gunz: For spending all of his monthly allowance,
and being financially challenged, he couldn't make it over here.
How irresponsible.
Mac: For being the tallest, and not dunking even one ball.
Ez: For, well, look at that thing in her left hand. That's a
piece of paper, filled with tabacco, with a dash of tar, and a
sniff of carbonmonooxide. NOT a winning combination I tell ya.
(Watch the movie "The Insider" (still playing) for more
on that. Even though the movie doesn't really focus on this, it
does provide some interesting facts).
Nagz: The playfield is NOT the exact place to be folding your
arms and look around interestingly.
Da Rest: For no reason, just guilty.
You might be wondering, why isn't Kimputer mentioned in this list ? Well, Captain's prerogative, that's called.
Anyway, I know, judgement day's a bitch. So here's your change to reply:
NAGU$: I did all I could. I really did. (I'm lying). Hmmmz. A bit tired and such (night before
playing: "Koninginnenacht", slept from 5 - 9 AM...) But
some RELAXATION on the playfield was very nice! Why is it called
KORFBALL by the way?
Tante Sjaans Dog: Nice picture!
Whoof!
Ezri: I admit my guilt, I will try harder next time. Hmmmmmmmz.
DataLore: HEHEHHEHEE...I was
having fun in Leiden at the time you were wiped off the field!!!
<EG>
T'Mar: Uhmm, no comment. But I have sore muscles all
over, that must count for _something_ ?
Newgarden: You suck Kimp, I don't wanna be on your team,
ever again.
DOOM_er: At least you didn't get to text-balloon any
pics of me! So there!
Gunhappy: I admit my guilt, I will try harder next time.
McCormick: I did all I could. I really did.
Adjeh: I did all I could. I really did.
Keep in mind, it's all just for fun.
