After being put on hold, the Bank Windhoek Fistball League returned over the weekend with more teams than last year at the Swakopmund Fistball Club Grounds.

The president of the Fistball Association, Kristof Lerch, said they didn’t expect the number of teams which registered for the tournament, especially the youth teams.

There were nine senior teams from three clubs: Cohen Fistball Club (CFC) and Sport Klub Windhoek (SKW) from Windhoek and Swakopmund Fistball Club (SFC) from the.

The tournament also saw six youth teams participating for the first time, making this year’s event even bigger and better.

All teams performed well, but only the elite made it to the semi-final A category. CFC 1 took on CFC 2 and emerged victorious with a 34-20 score. For the second semi-finals, SKW 1 went against SFC, with the former winning 24:21.

In the A category final, CFC 1 took on SKW 1 and won with an outstanding 3-0 in sets and were crowned winners.

The B category semi-final saw rivals CFC 3 and SKW 2 facing each other. Both teams showed great strength and ball skills but CFC 3 had the upper hand and won. For the second semi-finals, CFC 2 showed amazing game play and thus emerged victorious against SKW 3.

In the nail-biting final, rivals SFC 2 and SKW 3 battled, with both teams showing great strength, but only one team was going to walk away with the trophy. SFC 2 won 3-2 in sets against SFC 3 and were crowned the champions.

“All the supporters and fans here makes things more interesting, to be honest. The atmosphere is better than the past years,” Helmo Minz, the Fistball Association’s media officer, said.
