Smashing Expats Volleyball – June 2026 (Games Edition)

Hi everyone 🏐
Important: the session on Wednesday 17 June 2026 will take place at a new indoor location.

📍 Gymzaal Adamshofstraat
Adamshofstraat 33, Rotterdam

Please check the address carefully. This session is not at Putseplein.
On Wednesday 17 June, Smashing Expats will organize an indoor volleyball session in a games-focused format, based strictly on confirmed participation through payment.
The session will start with one short drill introduction, followed by volleyball games for the rest of the evening.

## Session format

• Short drill introduction to set the theme
• Volleyball games for the remainder of the session
• Focus on play, rhythm, and enjoyment
• Suitable for regular Smashing Expats players

## Minimum number of paid participants

To cover the gym rental costs and make proper games possible, the session will only go ahead if enough completed payments are received before the deadline.
Minimum required: 10 paid participants
The session is only confirmed if the minimum number of payments is reached by the payment deadline.

## RSVP and payment deadline

Please RSVP and complete payment on time.

• RSVP deadline: Thursday 11 June 2026

The deadlines allow us to:

• confirm the gym rental;

• cancel in time if needed.

## After the deadline

If the minimum number of payments is reached:
→ the session is confirmed, and sign-ups close.
