Seed Valley soccer tournament

In January the 10th Seed Valley indoor football tournament took place. This time the organization was in the hands of Pop Vriend and it was a great success. The ladies had set up the Seed Valley all-stars team together with Bejo. Quite successfully the tournament ended with a third place. The men ended at the 4th place, but Pop Vriend finished as undisputed champions in the third half.
