Belgian Championship (BUOC) Promises Excitement !
After we've played the first weekend of the Belgian Ultimate Outdoor Championship some conclusions can already be taken.
The biggest one is that I'm pretty sure the next weekend will bring a lot of excitement ! The race for the title is going to be an amazing one since Gentle already beat Moon, Moon beat Jetset, Freezzzbeezzz beat Moon, Jetset beat Freezzzbeezzz.....
Not to say that this will be the four teams to make it to the semi finals but I'm actually pretty sure about Gentle (defending champions), Jetset (currently vice-champions) and Mooncatchers (2009 champs) to make it to the top 3.
Next to the higher level between top teams it seems like belgian ultimate is truly growing.
24 teams brought a lot of players and I saw a whole lot of new faces. There have been a big bunch of exciting games between a lot of teams at what one might call the belgian "subtop". It's great to see everybody give it their all to reach a higher level of play at a championship that's just simply amazing.
We all know the belgian attitude is one of respect and fun on and off the field an it simply showed last weekend. The sun was there and there were a lot of smiling faces.
All results can be found at this adress : http://www.fbfdv.be/BUOC11_Results.html

News ! - Euro Youth Championships 2011 !
Check out this announcement by the European Federation ! :
"The EUF Youth Subcommittee are now able to confirm the time and date for the European Youth Ultimate Championships 2011.
It will take place in Wroclaw, Poland, on August 8th to 13th.
This means it starts two days after EUC in Maribor, which was requested by most National Federations so coaches that play EUC can go from one event to the other and stay in "ultimate mode".
We are very grateful to the local organizing committee, who have stepped in 6 weeks ago, when the original bid in a different city collapsed due to time collisions.
Many thanks also to those National Federations that offered to step in.
In our attempt to enable the tournament to grow and make it possible for as many as possible to participate, we are happy that Wroclaw can offer us a great venue with extra amenities at a very low cost.
There will also be a discount on the team fee for eastern European teams.
By this we aim to promote growth in European youth ultimate.
The registration will be through ffindr, in several steps.
The first step will be that National Federations should indicate by April 10 in which divisions they intend to participate, so the organizing committee will know the rough sizes for their planning (info with link to ffinder will be sent out ASAP).
After that the official registration will start.
The official tournament web site with necessary details will be available in April.
The divisions are as before:
Under 17 Girls and Under 17 Open (born '95 or later), Junior Women and Junior Open (born '92 or later).
Wroclaw offers great facilities, with 12 fields side by side plus more fields within a short walk.
Most facilities are within 15-20 min walking distance; there are camping and university dorm
rooms right next to the fields.
You can view the venue by copying the GPS position into a Google maps window:
GPS 51.118537,17.090428
Wroclaw, aka Breslau, is situated in south western Poland, relatively close to Prague or Berlin.
Ryanair offers several routes, as does WIZZ.
So, get your teams together, practise and look forward to this great event! We are excited
to see how many new teams will make it to Wroclaw. If you got any questions you can email
us on youth@euf.efdf.org
On behalf of EUF's Youth Subcommittee

Random Pictures - NL Outfit
I kind of like this shirt.
I don't know if it's going to be the Netherlands' official shirt during the upcoming EUC in Slovenia but I like the idea. (Even though I'm Belgian and I'm supposed to make fun of the Dutchies:)

Slijpschijven Indoor Champions !
This weekend we saw one of the most exciting indoor days ever to be held on Belgian soil.
5 teams made it to Play-Offs in the Belgian Ultimate Indoor Championship but only one could be the strongest and this year it is Slijpschijven who get to be called champions for another 363 days !!
Congratulations to the boys from Aalter !
They managed to beat Mooncatchers with one point difference which eventually made them come out on top in something that can be called a 'wins-losses-points-triangles-squares-extravaganza'
All teams had big chances of winning the title but for Mooncatchers,Gentle,Freezzzbeezzz and Diabolic Heaven it turned out to be a whole lot different.
I haven't seen this many excitement in the sports centre in Uccle for a long time, if ever...., but it was one hell of a play-off day to be part of. Three teams had the championship in reach by only one point but neither Gentle or Mooncatchers could hold it together and so Slijpschijven are INDOOR KINGS OF 2011.
There had been some thriller games with universe points that could decide over some other team's championship and I know everybody who was there loved the excitement and intensity of all these games.
It's actually safe to say that all 5 teams were amazing and the level of play was really high as well.
This shows that the general level in Belgium is rising once again and more teams are capable of making it to the top of this indoor game.
A big personal dissapointment, since Gentle lost the championship by losing to Freezzzbeezzz with one point, giving away an 8-5 lead to a team that had nothing to lose, nor to win, but a great day for Slijpschijven and the general level of play in Belgium.
Proud to be a part of this, proud of the Oaltere boys, and most of all : proud to play ultimate.
Keep on rocking in the free world, Belgium !
A few more pics from Stijn Spaas (Diabolic Heaven) with most importantly a scoreboard that kind of sums up the whole day. As we would say in Dutch : "Het was een dubbeltje op zijn kant", "it could have gone 5 ways" ...

BUIC Playoffs Tomorrow - Come,Watch& Support Belgian Ultimate !
Indoor season 2010-2011 is coming to an end.
Five teams in the running for the highly desired title.
Will it be Mooncatchers who confirms their 4,5th title in a row ? Or will Gentle be the ones who claim to be the best indoor team since their last title in 2006 and 2005 ??
Might there be another surprise with the other three power houses Slijpschijven,Freezzzbeezzz and Diabolic Heaven as last playday almost each team beat eachother ?
I'm thinking this will be the most exciting indoor playoffs Belgium has ever seen, cause it hasn't happened a lot that so many teams are in the running for the title....
Come one, come all, come over to Rue Neerstalle in Uccle to support Belgian Ultimate !
Hell Yeah !
