UDEN/OOSTERHOUT – German player Tom Löwe impressed at the World Cup in Bogotá and may show his high class in a home match for the frontrunner SIS Schoonmaak. Other notable names in the 15th round of the Kozoom league, the Dutch premier three-cushion league, are Omer Karakurt at Team Nachtwacht and Lennart Schrauwen at STZ Zundert. Tension is still growing on top of the premier league, because SIS Schoonmaak is only one point ahead of Team Eekhoorn, two ahead of chaser Stichting Topbiljart Zundert and three ahead of Cues&Darts and Bousema.
Rarely did it remain so exciting for so long in the battle for play-off places, because even Dekker/AP Sprundel, which will have a new home arena next year, is not yet eliminated. The 15th round will provide excitement again on Sunday.
SIS Schoonmaak is of course favorite in front of its own crowd against Aartsbouw Sprundel, the same as Team Eekhoorn in the camping derby with DKM Tools. STZ Zundert plays the tricky home match against Dallinga with Thorsten Frings leading the way for the home team in the match against Jean Paul de Bruijn.
Cues&Darts comes out at home against J&F Auto's, including a nice encounter between Burak Hashas and Therese Klompenhouwer. Dekker hosts Bousema Lochem and Burgmans Biljarts hosts Team Nachtwacht.
