De Deaf Devils staan klaar voor het EK voetbal !

On Wednesday 1 May, the national football squad played a practice match against FC Kleit's pledges on their pitch. They were able to conclude this one positively with a 2-3 win. After this friendly match, the MS League was able to transfer a cheque worth €500 to support their participation in the European Championship, which will start on 21 May against Poland (4 pm Belgian Time). The Deaf Devils' regular pub ('t Kruisken from Adegem) could also announce with enthusiasm that they could donate no less than an additional €3,000 to the Deaf Devils!
