Are you an international student that wants to play handball in Utrecht? Then we’re the perfect place! Welcome to HV Beertje, Utrecht’s most fun student handball association! Whether you’re an experienced player or just starting out, you’re welcome to join our “gezellige” community.
We train two times per week (on Tuesday and Friday) in Sportcentre Olympos on the Science Park. On the second Wednesday of each month, we have some drinks at ‘t Pandje in the centre of Utrecht. Furthermore, our Activity Committee organizes a fun activity on the last Wednesday of each month! Soooo there’s lots to do! If you want to become a member (just to train, to join one of our competition teams or to just drink some beers), you can always shoot us an email at bestuur@hvbeertje.nl and we’ll be in touch!
