The hockey player and her WMHC team won the title Sports team of the year 2011 last week. The Ladies first eleven were promoted last season in both the indoor and the outdoor competitions, to the highest and second highest division respectively. They won the Arnhem match 3-1. An important victory, says Karlijn. ‘At the moment we are fifth out of six teams, and Klein Zwitserland are fourth.’ In order to avoid play-outs and possible demotion, WMHC needs to win next weekend again. ‘And we’re playing against Klein Zwitserland again then. So it will be an exciting match.’
