The Open Dutch 2025 invite is online!

We just posted the Open Dutch 2025 invite with all the details of the event. Make sure to read the invite, and share it with your team, coaches, referees, and team members. We want to point out a couple of things as they are different in this edition. On Saturday the weigh-in/height-chek will start at 7:15 and end at 8:15. For Friday, we don’t have the times just yet, those will be announced closer to the event. Another thing to stress is that this year we will once again have a limit of 700 participants, last year we had several folks who waited to register until the last week which resulted in them not being able to register as we had hit 700 participants already. If you can, make sure you register early, as we expect it will sell out once again.

2025 Edition:

New hotel pricing available for the Open-Dutch 2025!

We’ve had some folks asking if the hotel prices for 2025 were already known or not, and we just finalized the packages with the various hotels. On our accommodations page, you can find the full details. We have the same hotels available as last year, and we’ve negotiated rates for you, so make sure to mention the booking code referenced on the accommodations page, that way you get the best price! We also would like to stress that the hotels closest to the venue will go extremely fast, so if you want to go for convenience make sure to book sooner rather than later.

Write it down: Open Dutch 2025: Saturday January 25th 2025

We barely recovered from the Open Dutch 2024 edition, and the preparations for 2025 are kicking off already. The event is scheduled for Saturday the 25th of January 2025! The location remains unchanged, and we will share more news in the upcoming months, for now, make sure to mark your calendar red so you don’t forget!

Thanks everyone for a fantastic 2024 edition of the Open Dutch!

We are all still recovering from the 2024 edition of the Open Dutch, which we personally feel was a great success. Most of the photographers have shared the links to their material with us, but we suspect more will be shared in the upcoming days/weeks. Literally thousands of photos have been shared. Make sure to check them, share them with your friends and family, and/or tag those you spot in the pictures!

2024 Edition

Weigh-in on Friday starts at 18:00, and Saturday between 7:15 and 8:45!

We are a few days out from the tournament, and we hope everyone is as ready as we are! We want to remind everyone that you will need to bring a signed copy of the DECLARATION OF CONSENT form to the tournament. (Last page of the invite) It is mandatory to fill out this form and bring a printed copy of the form to the verification/weigh-ins! Yes, this applies to everyone who wants to participate, regardless of age. If you are a minor, your parents (or legal guardian) will have to sign the agreement as well. Coaches, also note that all payments (entry fee and potential referee fines!) will have to be completed and received before your competitors can weigh in!

Secondly, the weigh-in on Friday starts at 18:00 and ends at 21:00! If you are in Helmond on Friday, please weigh in to avoid long queues on Saturday! On Saturday the weigh-in is between 07:15 and 8:45. The competition will start at 9:15, and considering the number of attendees we will start on time, and we will not extend the weigh-in time slot so make sure to be there on time! We do not make any exceptions!
