Camelot history

T.S.H.V. Camelot is a student handball association connected to the University of Tilburg. Originated as an association for and of students, we are here for all handball enthusiast, who are keen on throwing a ball or two next to their daily activities. Both experienced as beginning players are more than welcome to join.
 

Fair play is what Camelot represents. Other clubs enjoy playing practice matches against us, because of the positive attitude of our association (also seen in the coaching approach). For the women, there is a competition team that competes in the second class competition of (West) Brabant (South of the Netherlands). previous season (2019-2020) the women team is a fair competitor for the competing clubs.
 

Unfortunately, after many years of a successful men competition team, everyone had to go separate ways and the team fell apart. As a club, we are keen to recreate a men team again and therefore are welcoming all gents to join us for practice. A men competition team is one of our top points on our agenda. For this season, we are investing in a men team that competes in the student tournaments in the Netherlands.
 

Apart from indoor handball, Camelot is very active in the Summer as well by exchanging the indoor hall for the beach fields at the Tilburg University Sports Centre. In Summer, Camelot is very active in beach handball and trains three times a week (preferably more, obviously). Several tournaments in and outside of the Netherlands are marked in our agendas every year. The past years, our teams have visited (among others) Croatia, Italy, Poland, Switzerland, Greece, Portugal, Spain and Belgium for beach tournaments. Apart from the fun that beach tournaments bring (travel, making new friends from all over the world, parties and fair play) our teams have been a competitive opponent over the years. For several years, both our men and women teams have been able to place themselves for the European Championships Beach Handball (EBT) by winning tournaments around Europe, of which in 2013 the Camelot women won the European title. As competing in our own Dutch Championships, both the men and women have managed to win the title of Dutch Champions in 2011, 2013 and 2014. 
 

Our men are still great competitors for many clubs, manage to win several tournaments in and outside of Europe, and compete as a top team in the EBT (follow their Summer journeys here). For the women, it has been a bit more still in the past years. With two teams, they have mainly played, because they love the game. But this year it is decided to get the more competitive element back in our first women team in beach handball.


Other than the love for the sport, Camelot also represents ‘gezelligheid’ (no literal translation of this unique Dutch word, but let’s say it’s a combination of ‘fun’ and ‘cosiness’). With regular drinks in BrandPunt and many (sporty) activities (see agenda on the home page) throughout the season, we enjoy ‘club-bonding’ and spend quite some time together on and off the field.
