There is little to report from last night's first final. The gym was set up, the fans were there, and the match was slightly disappointing. As has been reported, we won the match in fairly safe style, winning by at least four in each of the three sets. We played stable but not especially well and it was enough to win a match that had quite a few mistakes in it.
There were definitely some good things from our side. We played good defense, blocked pretty well and only gave up a couple runs of points. But all in all it was a workmanlike win for us that we'll take and head back home for Monday.
It feels good to have that first win in the bank, and the security of home court for the next two. We've played well in Marienlystcentret all year so we go home with confidence. No question the next match will be more intense, from both sides, hopefully we'll be the ones holding up the trophy after it is over!

I agree that the game was not as good as hoped. You guys were in control start to finish and Middelfart did not have a hope to take that game. I can only hope that they will come at you guys with something more on Monday.
Bright spots as seen by me...
1)Aaron Schulha had a great match and proved why he should seriously be considered for the årets hold. 2)Nathan ripping a serve and a B with some serious pow behind it.
3)The reserve call by the official on the joust that put the smallest player in the league (mau) against your biggest middle, with mau giving him the chair.
I hope that the next game will be better volleyball. Unfortunalty I will only be able to see the game if they are showing it on a tv in some amsterdam coffee shop.
Ah ha ha, in many ways, I wish I could join you, I'm sure the match is being broadcast internationally... Was that an Amsterdam coffee shop you will be in? Or a cafe?
No question Schula should be considered for the team of the year, but he's got some stiff competition: Nathan, Jesper Hansen, Geo Santos, etc... They all have a good case for being included.
I've said it before, the playoff matches right now should be a definite part of the consideration...
