In the early hours, 100 cubic metres of beach sand were dumped onto the market square, opposite the terrace of café ‘de Tijd’. The students called on passers-by to take part in a ‘flag-rugby’ contest, a less strenuous form of the game. Their call attracted mainly the young ones. These rugby clinics were held alongside a tournament of the Scylla volleyball club. Queen’s Day gave both clubs a good opportunity to draw the attention of ‘Wageningers’ to themselves.
Ball of a time on Queen’s Day
The students of the Wageningen rugby club were up and about early on Queen's Day. At 9 a.m., they started the ball rolling to get Wageningen residents acquainted with their sport.
