I bring sad news. Team Holland won't be making it. We're down to four Dutch players and have run out of options for a fifth.

I will work hard to be there again with a Dutch team in 2014.

Sad news.

Just on the offchance you've not thought of it; have you tried dropping a post on FUMBBL? There are a fair few good Dutch coaches on there; you might hit one who fancies a holiday?

If you don't make it, good luck for 2014.

Basically... I happened :roll:, I captain teams like I build cages :lol:

We had a drop out a bit ago and had four nationals left. A fifth is someone living in the Netherlands and I was under the assumption that it was nationality that counted. So, I started calling all players discussing this and we came to the conclusion that we didn't have a Eurobowl-legal team.

So, after I mailed everyone and posted that we wouldn't come, someone pointed me towards the eurobowl site, where it states:
At least 5 of a national team's coaches must be citizens or residents of the nation in question.
So, end result: We will be there afterall 8)

This is precisely the level of organisation that is required for a top three finish... ;-)

As long as you give us all of you beer again then I'm happy!

I'm delighted you aren't not coming! 8)

Pls help me: I am not sure when are the rosters to be submitted.
At the event, prior to the first match?
Or mail it in advance? Or?
thanks

Just got up from my bed (being a bit ill) to news that we won't have a team from Holland! Believe my shock, when I heard that. I'm glad you managed to organise a legal team, would be a shame otherwise. So I'm glad to have you come as a team.

@BlackOrc: We would want to have them on Friday 25th Octobre. If you would be ready to mail them in before, feel free to do so.

thanks Turin

another question:
Is it possible to handle special diets (I mean the dinners and lunches included in registration)?
eg. vegetarians

p.s. get better with that illness

Good question! Though I was assuming shlominius (vegetarian) would be making sure this was in hand...

Don't worry, there will be enough choice to have everyone get their meal. With shlominus in the team, we have to make sure it is possible to eat veggie.

Yeah right ...
Make us believe your qualification does not involve any kind of drinking liquids ...
Nice try ;)

Naaaah, that wouldn't make any difference... But drowning in the beer keg has taken way too many shorter coaches to their premature deaths. Hence this qualification.
