Commando's Log; Thursday, 6 November 2025 – TheLaW reporting for duty Before we dive into the events of this mission, I’d like to take a moment to salute my fellow commando who held the line while I was on leave from the battlefield.I had been granted temporary leave to visit family and recharge, but now I’m back — boots laced, ready for action, and eager to get back into the fight. Mission Briefing This battle wasn’t just another match on the schedule — it meant something.This squad was the fi... Lees meer

Yes yes, today it was time for another match! And for the first time, we can actually show our Winnieh the Two shirts!    What the attentive reader may have noticed, is that we still have no libero with us. So again, some improvisations were made. Luckily, our outsiders and middles are so supremely good in service pass, we didn’t need a libero today.    I will talk some statistics in a moment, but first, a quick question. What do you think happened in the fifth point?  A. A dog ran into the field B. ... Lees meer

We had to warm up in the first set. It worked out in the second set. Not in the third set. We were close in the fourth set, but we could not keep our lead.   The match made us cry, But then there was apple pie. We could have used some energy drinks, To give us wings. Next time we are going to fly!... Lees meer

  In the absence of your usual reporter, who thoroughly enjoyed his leave from the strict commandos regime, you will receive the match report from someone else this week. Last Friday (01-11), Gents commandos was finally able to show their true team during the official opening weekend. With a new uniform, new yell and a roaring homecrowd at the start of the evening, there is nothing we would miss. Well that was obviously wrong, with few of our regular troops being on leave to other places and one of our set... Lees meer

In the first set we were like: this team is really good! Scary times, especially because it was Halloween👻. We lost that one quite badly.  But then! The second set came. We lost that one as well.. We needed to give them a false feeling of winning and then it was comeback time!!! Third set!!! Comeback time for real. The energy was there, the smashes were there there, the passes, the communication, the passion, the love we have for this game❤️ And we won the third set! Then, in the fourth set, our pas...

Nieuwe week, nieuwe kansen. De avond begon vroeg bij Babeth met een lekkere pasta als krachtvoer voor de wedstrijd. De energie was nog even laag in het team na een lange week studeren, maar eenmaal samen komt de energie vaak vanzelf bovendrijven. Om half 6 al vertrokken we richting Fleringen, inclusief invaller Iris op midden en “fysio” Lorenz.  Ruim op tijd stonden we op het veld en konden we even zoals kleine kindjes in een rondje de bal spelen aangezien het net nog niet was opgezet door de tegenstan...

Onze eerste competitiewedstrijd was uit in Goor tegen Dynamiek D2. Vooraf aten we in het appartement van Merijn. Dit is een tweepersoonsappartement op de derde verdieping zonder lift, wat twee probleempjes veroorzaakte. Ten eerste moesten we dus met 13 mensen eten in een kleine woonkamer, dat was lekker knus. Ten tweede betekende dit dat Iris, onze coach op krukken met veel geduld de trappen van de flat moest trotseren. Uiteindelijk kwam alles goed, uiteraard! Naja, alles, bij het wegrijden waren we bijna M... Lees meer

This Saturday Gents Three was sent on it’s next mission, which took place in our own backyard! And just like our first mission, we once again faced old rivals. Or rather, old allies-turned-rivals. Back in the old days... Anyway. The matchday started with lunch at the stands to cheer on the other teams that were already playing their games. We were happy to have coach Chiel back from spending two weeks at Defensie. Among other things, Chiel expanded his knowledge of torture methods of different forms stren... Lees meer

  Gents three’s season started off with a serious challenge. The men were sent on their first mission after only one training session as a new team. The newly formed team met up at the Sports Centre, where they were joined by reinforcements Mr. Holtkamp and Mr. Willems. Before we left, Mr. Holtkamp kindly helped fellow students to jump-start their new year. Or at least their car. After helping them on their way, the team left towards Losser, eager to test their skill and teamwork against the a formidable... Lees meer

Gamenight 9 okt 2025 Do you believe in the butterfly effect? If not, you should. What are you doing!! Let me explain. By now you know the routine. Gameday means eating together and traveling together to the gym. While driving some of us missed our turns 3 times. The drive was so long and the gym was so secluded in the forest at a given point we thought we were going to play against deers and farm animals. When we finally arrived at the gym, we beat our opponent 4 – 0. Now imagine What if… we didn’t mi... Lees meer
