Some bigger and smaller newsfacts from the last couple of weeks from Holland where regular season is over, the Allstars have been chosen and the cup was once again played between the same teams that made it to last years playoff finals.
Laki Lakner from cupwinner Probuild Lions will retire after the season. He will be replaced by his assistants Ilja Bozovic and Jesse Korf who are in their second season as assistants to Lakner.
Probuild Lions won the National Cup in dramatic fashion as they managed to shut down Challenge Sports Binnenland Rotterdam. They were led by stellar performances from Molly McDowell and Katie Bussey (175-G-90, college: Montana St.) who seem to reach peak form as playoffs approach.
LIsanne de Jonge from Lekdetec.nl, one of the most promising players in the league who is averaging close to a double double this year for points and rebounds will leave Bemmel for a stint with SJU were fellow Dutchie Chatilla van Grinsven was one of the major steakholders this year. It leaves quite a gap in Bemmel where the multi talented forward averages close to 30 minutes a game.
Rumours had it that Assen , in the north of the country, were picked by Russian investers to found a satellite team for Spartak Moskow. The new to be founded club was to go by the name Spartak Milner Assen , and Paul Steemers, currently responsible for the reserves of Lekdetec.nl was said to become the headcoach. As the federation did not confirm the new team it all appears to be an april fools joke.
Ton Bootsman will replace Frank de Wit as the headcoach of Dozy den Helder. The former assistant to Meindert van Veen is currently in charge of the U18 team with Dozy and has been longtime looking for an opportunity such as this one.

After a solid preseason and a blowout in the Supercupgame last week, Probuild was held back a little , but as CTO wasn't in their best shape either, both teams made for an exciting game. CTO had a 8-2 advantage before Probuild got their motors running on the way to 8-11. After 19-21 Probuild extended their lead by two threes of sensational guard Katie Bussey to 38-46 at halfway.
After the break CTO did a better job using their height adventage, and they came back to 67-71 on a basket of Richelle van der Keijl but Horelika, McDowell, Bos and Bussey made a run to 71-82 ending the hopes for the hometeam. Aneta Horelika had 11 points and 10 boards in her league debut.
