    since when is hester jasper a libero?

    Nice to see such a young squad, poor Jet though who still gets called Helena :flower: Great chance for the OPPs and OHs to show their potential on this level, same for MTB/Suus/Britte fighting for a spot in the WCH squad.

    Fans of the Dutch NT have held hands while dancing around in circles, doing chants and manifesting to the libero gods :dance4: and finally our prayers are heard, let's hope she can make an impact

    is she going to stick to playing libero from now on?

    It's a shame IMO Lyklema is there instead of Konijnenberg/Zander. They have more potential... Also I would have liked to see Wessels instead of Baijens for this friendly tournament, so she could show us what she can do on international level.


    Knollema probably still struggeling with injuries? Otherwise he should have been here aswell.

    Quote from Phoenix

    I changed it now. My bad:S

    Haha no worries, she's been named Jet in Dutch media and on Instagram so I had to think for a sec who they meant lol. I noticed that her Volleybox page also (still) says Helena Kok - with (Jet) behind it. Very confusing :lol: she's also named Helena on the VNL website, hope she will wear a shirt with J. Kok (as her sister is also on the 30-name squad as P. Kok)

    van aalen and baijens tagging along ruined the point of giving chances to others

    I can kinda get why Sarah and Indy are there though, to have a little bit of "experience" - if they want to build a team for VNL - but also both of them did not have their best season yet. Especially Indy might benefit from getting some rhythm and confidence again and Sarah needs to get used to having attacking MBs lol

    Not sure, I think for NT it's her best bet. Not sure what she'll do in club season, she got announced as renewal in PAOK but I assume as OH? Let's just hope Felix will let her play at least half of these friendly matches and not just use her as a backrow sub. I'm excited to watch that's for sure, hope there'll somehow be a stream!
