[CubeLite]

Idk if I should be happy or not
I wanted it to be in the Balkans so that I can go, but this is in almost 2 years, so maybe until then I convince my mom to go there, or maybe I'm able to grow my channel to make something out of it
But I think if this summer I do good in comps, I can go to it

 

[Jorian Meeuse]

I'll be there!
Here is the link to the application (from the WCA site) for anyone curious:

You might see me ... And my dad
We've been wanting to go to the Netherlands for a while now

I didnt expect the competition to have waves (phases) for registration, I luckily am in the first wave (clock) and I really wanna go! There is an campsite for 12% of the competitors and me and my friend who is pretty good in 2x2 might sleep over there.

I love the announcement poster!

Third time's seemingly the charm after COVID had plans contrary to those of the organisers.

Why don’t they have like 1500 because it seems like it will be much smaller next year

[Davian]

What’s the venue

Venue is Sportcentrum Valkenhuizen, there will be a campsite which is 2 steps away from the venue which is also 10x as cheap as an hotel, ive had 3 competitions there (Dutch Open 2023, Arnhem Open A, and Dutch Nationals 2024), the venue is easy to access from the entrance and its an nice venue, theres an small cafe but that isnt enough for 1000+ people, so they fixed foodtrucks.

 

[Thomas.Caleb]

Great me and my family are already discussing

 

[Thomas.Caleb]

Are there registration phases if so are they as harsh as worlds 2025

 

[Thomas.Caleb]
