At the U20 European Championship (Division B) our U20 Belgian Cats have remained undefeated throughout and qualified for the Finals in which they’ll face The Netherlands.

After wins against Great Britain and The Netherlands our U20 Cats qualified for the Semi-Finals in which they faced Iceland today. In that Semi-Final match-up a diminished Iceland (suiting up only 8 players) was no match for our youngsters as Belgium cruised to the 87-51 victory.

Nastja Claessens finished with 18 pts & 5 rebs. Renee Denys added 15 pts, Louann Battiston recorded 11 pts and Marine Cop rounded up the top scorers with her 10 pts.

Tomorrow follows the Final of the tournament at 7pm.
