Jumping Crabs ensured themselves for another year in the First Division by winning over BS Leiden, their closest opponent for the 5th place. With two games to go, Leiden trails by 4 points. But even if they manage to win their last two games and JC loses both, JC will lead because they defeated Leiden 3 times and only lost once. The other 'theoretical' opponent Jumpers lost this weekend, so now they're unable to catch up with JC.
Jumping Crabs started the game furious. After five minutes they had a 16-5 lead. This lead remained until the end. Leiden never got into the game. BS Leiden came to Bergen op Zoom with 5 juniors. Only the starting line-up for Leiden were seniors. Stefan and Dave played a good game. Rob made his return after a hand-injury. Andrew was again sidelined because he wanted to come back too soon from his injury. Joost played some minutes.
This game Adrian returned as head coach. He came up with a great starting
line-up; Tertius, Max, Olaf, Juul and Dave. This is great because this season we
have little attendance on practice, except for the Fanatic Four Tertius, Max, Olaf
and Dave. So it felt good to start with all of them between the lines. This move
turned out to be a good one, according to the 16-5 lead after 5 minutes. Way to go
coach!! It's a real shame that Olaf and Max have decided to leave the Crabs behind
and try their luck in Belgium at St. Niklaas. I sure hope they kick belgium ass all
the way, but it will be hard to make up for their loss. I wanna thank them for
showing everybody what dedication and love for the game can do. It took a while
for some people within our club to recognize their talents. For those who just
recently discovered it, too late, they're gone......
