For the second year in a row, Blauw-Zwart heads to Dutch Brabant. T1 Nicky Hayen is taking 31 players to what will be a tough week with two training sessions almost every day. The week will end on Saturday with a practice match against PSV.
DAY 5
Final training and quiz
Another training day in Sint-Michielsgestel, where our players trained on Dutch soil for the last time. All preparations were made for the clash between Dutch national champions PSV and Blauw-Zwart on Saturday.
The match in Eindhoven will kick off at 13:00. This match will be played behind closed doors, but thanks to HLN+, fans can still watch the game. All info can be found here.
After the morning practice, our players had a free afternoon for relaxation. In the evening an important part of the training was scheduled: the annual quiz!

DAY 4
Team building
Already more than half of the internship is over, but Thursday was entirely dedicated to team building and there was again plenty of training. In the morning, as in previous days, the usual morning training was scheduled.
In the afternoon it was time for the long-awaited team building. Different teams competed against each other in various challenges, ranging from tennis and golf to kayaking. Wondering which team was the winner of the day? Keep an eye on our socials for the reveal!
The day ended with a nice BBQ, a perfect way to end this great day.
DAY 3
Spicy training day ahead
On Day 3, we continued on the momentum of two solid training sessions a day. Between lunch and the afternoon session, time was also set aside for interviews with the traveling press.
That evening there was also attention for what happened in Dortmund. The Netherlands and England took on each other in the second semifinal of the European Championship.
Our players also looked forward to Thursday afternoon with big eyes, because then team building was on the agenda.
DAY 2
Summer morning training under a blazing sun
Day two of our summer training in the Netherlands is now over! Today we had a busy program scheduled with two training sessions: one in the morning and a second session later in the afternoon. But also some interviews with players and tonight a dinner, followed by the European Championship match Spain against France at 21:00.
