men’s matches
The gentlemen from the main divisions SCHC and Tilburg will have to be patient for some time. Their qualifying matches are scheduled for June 1, 4 and 6. It is known that HDM and Voordaan will be the opponents, but it is still clear who will be playing against whom.
HDM and Voordaan have to play two more matches in the competition to determine who will take second and third place in the promotion category. The difference between HDM, which ranks second, with Voordaan is only one point. In the playoffs, Tilburg plays against the number three and SCHC against the number two of the promotion category.
