Information about different competitions in Belgium and beyond.
Here’s a list of events that could interest the Belgian players. There is also a comment for each of them if the Kajakpolo Shop will have a booth there, just attend (make orders via mail) or won’t be there. (more…)
The Belgian season is at its end.
With the 4th day of canoe polo games over and done, it’s time to count the games and celebrate the victors.
First division
The new team GENT was on track for Belgian Champ since the beginning of the season and they didn’t disappoint. Not a single lost game and thus a flawless record of 42 points from 14 games, there was no stopping them.
It’s a bit surprising that they got beaten for the Belgian Cup.
The podium, however, was a bit shaken compared to last year. MOKKA made second spot before WKV (Champ 2013). In the final games, WKV got beaten by TRITON.
The losing team of this year is WKV 2, dropping to 2nd division next year.
Second division
The Champ in 2nd is RKV, well deserved. They too had a flawless record of 24 points from 8 games.
Read a nice writeup here: roeselaresport.be.
The rest of the podium: KNRS & BKK.
AKKC will no longer be playing in 2nd and will be replaced by TNT 2 for next year, congratulations to them for the promotion.
The shotclock is here to stay in canoe polo games. This post will give some information, list some problems and potential fixes. (more…)
Every sport with some form of competition needs a referee, canoe polo being no exception.
Referees in canoe polo operate from the shore, giving them a better overview, but they aren’t as close as some other sports, which can be challenging.
The international canoe federation has a world championship every two years. Belgium has been participating against other big countries since 1994. Between 1994 and 2012, there have been 10 championships, and it’s always good to give an overview of what the Belgians have or have not done.
