After having played over 200 games between 52 teams, on 16 Nets, all on 1 lawn, in one long day, we proudly crowned our very first swiss roundnet champions:
Cat Open: RCB Spikeleeks (Carlo Engel + Luc Moor) Cat Women: RCB Kalibri (Anna Lea Schindler + Carole Gassner)
Congratulation once again, we are so very proud of you! Thanks for being such inspiring players that didn’t just win the tournament, but also had a big part in organizing it, and lastly, on game-day, didn’t just keep up with their staff duties but made sure that everyone enjoyed the day as part of our swiss roundnet community.
A warm congrats also to all other participants that travelled from over 9 Cantons to our capital city to compete in the biggest roundnet tournament in Switzerland yet. You all played a lot of thrilling matches under the burning sun, battling for every single point without loosing the mindset of fair play and companionship. Thanks for the good vibes during the whole day, no matter if you were from Neuenhof with your biiiig drum (and biiiiggg party mentality), Messen with their Purple shirts and colorful sunglasses (love your shirts, do you guys have a merch shop?), Basel for showing the rest of Switzerland what girlpower means (their club was solely founded and led by women), Schaffhausen for suprising all of us (their best team finished 6th in cat open), Luzern for teaching us to spell your name correctly (it’s Lozärn with an o at the beginning, and a smile at the end), Zürich for shouting Zürich a couple of times (loudly…), Lausanne for adding some coolness and shade (loved your laid back attitude and without your tents everybody would have got sunburned), and St. Gallen for being there even though your not part of the association yet (YET in capital letters). Last but not least thank you Roundnet Club Bern for playing such a big role not only in the organization of the tournament but also in the development of the sport and our community in Switzerland. Thanks for taking on the role as pioneer and letting the other clubs develop in your “wind shadow”, thanks for sharing your expertise in training, carrying out tournaments, and also for letting us use so much of your gear during the swiss champs, but mostly for being such a big role model in building and also carrying about all members of all the clubs in our community.
