There were no surprises in the second round of the Bank Windhoek National Fistball League held on 20 April, at the SKW Sport fields. SKW 2 still leads in the Bank Windhoek National A League, while Cohen FC 3 remains in control of the Bank Windhoek National B League.
Without their inspirational captain and spiker, Michael Baas, SKW 2 was under pressure to produce a good performance to maintain their lead in the National A League log. SKW coach, Stefan Grögli, strengthened the team with the attacking pair of Christoph Kubirske and Rico Kühnle-Kreitz, which proved to be a good move. The team won both their games to maintain their five point lead against Cohen FC 1.
Third placed SKW 1 had mixed fortunes winning only one of their two games, which allowed Cohen FC 1 to increase their lead against the SKW team to five points.
Cohen FC 3 is still unbeaten in the Bank Windhoek National B League. The Windhoek-based team won all three matches and now tops with an almost unassailable eight point lead. In second place is Cohen FC 4, who achieved impressive three wins from four matches. SKW 3 managed to retain its third place, thanks to the bonus points they gathered from their games. The hapless DTS team, is now in fourth spot after losing all their games in the B League.
The SFC Sport Club team in the Bank Windhoek National B league showed an improved performance from their last league performance, but still remains at the bottom of the log.
The Bank Windhoek National Fistball League will take a break during May. Fistball lovers can, however, support their teams at the Coastal Indoor Classic on 18 May 2013. The tournament is Namibia’s only Indoor Fistball tournament and is hosted by the SFC Sport Club.
