Each year at the end of May, GUMIT takes place. GUMIT is an international tournament organized by two student basketball associations in Groningen. For me it’s my third year in a row to participate at GUMIT and every year I’m wondering if it will be as fun as the previous year. Well, it is!

And they are number 4 for a reason. Read more.

MATCH REPORT: D.B.V. ARRIBA GENTS 3 VS. AMICAL GENTS 3MATCH REPORT: D.B.V. ARRIBA GENTS 3 VS. AMICAL GENTS 3

The first quarter started somewhat slow, but quite surely the lay-ups started to hit and the shots started to fall. Gents 3 had already faced Amical 3 earlier, but in the first quarter the lead already started to build faster than the match before. In the second quarter the Arriba defense tightened further and with good results. Many Amical passes were intercepted and before they knew it, the fast breaks of Gents 3 hit their basket again and again.  Read more.

Last Saturday, gents 3 went on a journey all the way to the north of Enschede to play The Jugglers. The previous match against this team resulted in a loss, so they knew it wasn’t going to be an easy game.

In the first quarter, both teams started off with a few quick points and the score was even when the first 5 minutes of Q1 were over. Read more.

With six people and three cars (and someone going by bike), gents 3 was going to their first match after the holiday. Last time Arriba defeated the Buzzards with a 13-point difference, but they would still have to work hard this game, especially since coach Klaas had other business to attend to. Luckily for Arriba, veteran Gerben was there to help them out. Read more.
