Other events in the Netherlands, as the Tomscat Trophy and the national championships, which are both included in the Dutch League's schedule, have attracted a larger number of teams in the past. However, last weekend's competition had new record numbers for the A Class and Rookie Class competition at a regulat DL meet.
The Punky Fish veterans Paul Hofstee, Bert Hajee and Johan Wieken were guiding Cool Runnings, Zwabber and Pioschop through the competition as player coaches. These three new teams were formed during a Punky Fish skills camp in July. Bert Hajee won a silver medal with Zwabber last weekend.
The results at the last meet of the regular DL 2006 season also determined the overall winners of the Dutch League 2006. Team Whooops took the first place in the Rookie Class. Leon van Leeuwen (Point), Erwin van der Schaaf (Center Outside), Mechie van der Schaaf-Voermans (Center Inside), Isabella Terpstra (Tail) and Johan de Pijper (Video) also won the award for the most improved team after beginning the 2006 season with a 6.2 average and finishing with an 8.7 average last weekend.
The Netherlands will once again send a complete delegation to the ESL Championship 2006 on September 8 in Spa, Belgium. Punky Fish, Infinity and Pulse will represent the country in the AAA Class, while NRG and the Daltons will compete for the Netherlands in the AA Class.
The delegation of the Netherlands will have to defend the "Spirit", the ESL Championship trophy. The scores of the whole delegation will be accumulated, and the Dutch teams won the trophy last year. Great Britain has announced a serious challenge this year and will send a very strong delegation, as well.
