Info English: http://buto.hajraa.nl/?lang=en/Info Dutch: http://buto.hajraa.nl/?lang=nl
Brief description of the Hajraa Buitententoernooi
Since its first edition in 1979 with 80 competing teams the Hajraa Outdoor Tournament has grown to one of the biggest European volleyball tournaments on grass. Considering the 400 teams of different nationalities playing on more than 100 grounds together with more than 4000 other volleyball lovers and party people on one big camping site and two great parties with more than 15000 litres of beer, this event has grown to almost legendary proportions!
In one week time the sports area and the campus of the Eindhoven University of Technology will transform in the biggest volleyball event of Europe with two full days of volleyball, Saturday afternoon theme-activities and both on Friday and Saturday evenings the biggest and most spectacular parties you can think of with live bands every night.
Besides a group of participants of our neighboring countries we also welcome participants from the rest of the world. In 2000 we welcomed a delegation from Taiwan and in 2001 Romanian students won the final of the Open Dutch Student Championship Grass volleyball. In 2007 we got surprised by the participation of a team from Canada! In 2010 Haifa University won the overall Open Dutch Student Championship and they continued their success in 2011.
This well known volleyball tournament with international fame is one of the biggest in Europe and is organized by students of the Eindhoven Student Volleyball Club Hajraa. Hajraa is a club that is active in the regional and national volleyball competition and organises lots of activities that are related to volleyball and having fun.

The selfie-stick was forbidden at the castle of Versailles. Nevertheless, we decided it would be an awesome idea to organize a Selfiegame. The contents of this game will remain a secret for now.We hope to see you at Tuesday May 19th in teams of 5 to 7. Don't forget your selfiestick (and charge your phone)!Hugs,Beer and de knuffelcommissie

Clothing could look a little different in reality. The board could decide at the end of the order period to not order some of the items (yet), perhaps because the minimum order amount isn’t reached. Orders can be put in on the website or on the screen at GEWIS. The prices of the items are maxima and probably will turn out lower, the endprice will be calculated at the end of the order period and then the money will have to be transferred immidiatly. Ordering means paying! For any questions you can contact Rik Schepens.
