Just four games left and the competition season wraps up! After ten intense rounds, the Black Sheep proudly sit in 3rd place in the third division South. Not too shabby for a team that was originally slated to start a division lower!
Things are looking up—winning just makes the sun shine brighter, doesn’t it? But hold your horses, we’re not quite there yet. The OG’s from Utrecht are having a shocker of a season, and it would take a miracle for them to offload that red lantern to another team.
The real drama is who’s going to end up in the relegation danger zone alongside OG’s. The teams are packed close together, with just 3 to 5 points separating them. Depending on the games played, there are still 6 to 10 points up for grabs. The Ice Hawks and Capitals are out of this dogfight, as they’re expected to battle it out for the top spots and move up to the 2nd division next season.
Kicking back and thinking we’re safe would be premature. Every game counts, and every win is crucial for all teams involved. We need to keep pushing to secure our spot in this division for the 25-26 season.
We definitely brought our A-game last weekend, clinching an exciting home win against the Capitals. It was a nail-biter, but we weren’t the sheep led to slaughter this time. You can catch all the action from that game below.
This weekend, we get a breather before hosting the Geleen team the following weekend. The Smoke Eaters are climbing the ranks fast, and we’ll need to bring our best to halt their advance and keep our edge.
Mark your calendar—February 9 at 20:45, Sportboulevard in Dordrecht. Be there in the stands, or catch the live stream. Keep an eye on this website or our socials for more details. Let’s go, Black Sheep!
