The final sprint in the Tulip big league has begun. With three league rounds to go, a decisive Sunday awaits us. On the twentieth day of play, the battle erupts – both for the coveted playoff tickets and against relegation. All matches can be followed live via streaming service Viaplay. Unfortunately, there is no field hockey summary on NOS Studio Sport this weekend.
Because of Koningsdag all teams will be in action on Sunday. The ladies of Kampong and Amsterdam kick off the day at 12:45 p.m. on the Klapperboom. This direct duel for a spot in the playoffs may be Kampong’s last chance to keep the dream alive. With five points behind, a win is crucial; a defeat would make the gap almost unbridgeable.

Double on HDM
We are also in The Hague, where an interesting double is scheduled at the HDM complex. At 12:45 p.m. the ladies of HDM play against Rotterdam. Only two points separate the numbers nine and eleven. If Rotterdam wins, they can climb out of the danger zone for the time being, while HDM can get some air in the fight against relegation.
The tension is also high in the men’s team. Number ten HDM takes on SCHC, the current number nine. Both teams have the same number of points, but SCHC is just above HDM thanks to more wins. Everything points to an exciting showdown.
In the Promotion Class, a true topper is scheduled. Number three Schaerweijde receives leader Tilburg at De Kuil. The difference is only two points. With a victory Schaerweijde can take over the lead and make a big step towards promotion to the Tulip big league.
In short: it promises to be a grandiose field hockey Sunday, with the first game at 12:00 and the last at 17:30. Follow everything live through our channels and don’t miss a moment of the action!
