If you have to leave early and are not coming with us to Groningen but would like something to eat after the competition, please let us know in your dietary requirements!

 

Party

From 22:00, the doors of Huize Maas (Vismarkt 52, 9711 KV Groningen) will open for a great final party. The doors will close at 23:00, so make sure you get in on time! The party will last until 04:00. Please note, the party is for participants aged 18+. It is important that everyone brings their ID to the party! Access will be checked at the entrance. A cloakroom is available at the party. The cost for this is €2.00 per person.

 

Sleeping

All participants will be assigned to sleep with members of De Golfbreker, both for the pre-party and the party. There is therefore no sleeping hall!

 

Bus trip

Different from other NSZKs but quite normal for Groningen, this time the competition is not in Groningen but in Heerenveen! For this, buses have been arranged to travel to and from the pool!

 

For those going to the pre-drinnks (or travelling from Groningen anyway), it is possible to travel to the pool on Saturday with the bus transport arranged by golf breaker. After the match, it is again possible to travel back to Groningen with these buses. The buses will leave between 19:00 and 20:30 from the pool after the dinner shifts.

 

The cost of bus transport is optional. It is also possible to travel to and from the match by own transport or public transport.

 

Costs

The cost of this NSZK will be the usual cost, except for the additional bus transport:
 

Match: €7.50

Dinner & Party: €8,-

Sleeping place: €2,- per night

Single bus fare: €10,-

Bus return: €15,-

 

As some already know, you can communicate your preferred events in your registration. However, some people might be registered for other events to achieve te fastest line-up possible! The people who are involved in this matter often know themselves!

 

If you do not want to swim during the event but only want to join for the pre-drinks/party that is fine as well! Just mention it during your registration!
