🇩🇪Karlsbad recap🇩🇪

Last weekend we visited our friends in Germany again to join their handball tournament!🤾🤾‍♀️ The games, sun, drinks and food, alles war immer toll😎🍻😋

Luuk a.k.a. DJ Luuk is our Okkie of the Month this time! Read below👇🐙

1. Who are you?
I’m Luuk and i study Applied Physics at TU/e. This is my first year at Oktopus and its been a lot of fun so far!

2. For how long have you been playing handball?
I’ve been playing handbal for about 5 years now. Before I came to Oktopus I also played a couple of years for Zephyr and Dynamico.

3. What is your favourite postion in the field?
Well, before i got to Oktopus i played pretty much only on the wing, but now i enjoy playing on the pivot also

4. What has been your most memorable moment in Oktopus?
There have been a lot, but i think the beertje tournament has been most memorable

5. DJ Luuk, if you would be a song, which song would you be?
Hahah thats a good question. Maybe something like Don’t Stop the Party by pitbull, but i think Tequila by The Champs could also be a strong contender

Our April Okkie of the Month is Alexandra🔥🤾‍♀️ Read below to get to know her👇

1. Who are you?
Well only some people know the legend of my whole name ‘Alexandra’ but most people call me Alex, ali or aal.
2. ⁠For how long have you been playing handball?🤾‍♀️
I joined handball when I was 16 then played for 2 years, stopped for a year, played a year, coronatimes, and then joined oktopus for 4 years now I think.
3. ⁠What is your favourite postion in the field?
Probably pivot
4. ⁠What has been your most memorable moment in Oktopus? 🐙
The tournaments we join in general, and if I would have to pick one you could probably already guess that cabezota is my favourite. I will never forget the whole vibe of the music, sun, drinks (read: blaadjes) in the vesting bar. The guy on the roof playing r***r and my song ‘boots with the fur’, baked eggs in the morning, beachhandball andd ofcourse all the best oktopus people to vibe with!
5. ⁠Can you tell us a funfact? 👀
Ofcourse! I have so many it is hard to pick. Did you know Australia had a war with emu’s? AND they lost! Because it turned out they only had 2 bullets per emu. Long live the emu
