New faces in Binnenlandhttp://www.eurobasket.com/NED/NED.asp?NewsNo=10&women=1| by Eurobasket News - Jun 17, 2008 |
| Renes Binnenland started to shape up for the upcoming season. The last season could hardly be called successful for the team as they finished the regular season at 6-18 record at the 8th spot in the ladder. They were later swept by the Yellow Bike in the opening round of playoffs. So now the team is trying to bolster the quad to improve on the result. Binnenland added some new players to the roster in recent weeks. Firstly the team returned Mirelle Lagendijk (180-G-86). |  |
Renes Binnenland started to shape up for the upcoming season. The last season could hardly be called successful for the team as they finished the regular season at 6-18 record at the 8th spot in the ladder. They were later swept by the Yellow Bike in the opening round of playoffs. So now the team is trying to bolster the quad to improve on the result. Binnenland added some new players to the roster in recent weeks. Firstly the team returned Mirelle Lagendijk (180-G-86). The 23-year-old guard spent the first two years of her career in Binnenland before moving to Yellow Bike last year. She won the Eredivisie with the new side but decided to come back to Renes Binnenland for the upcoming season.
Binnenland also added Martina Bergman to the squad. The 27-year-old guard/forward from Sweden will join the team next month. Originally from Korea Berman studied in well-known Sanda Basket Basketball School in Sweden. She later had stints with Ockelbo Basket and Hogsbo Basket at home.
Moreover Binnenland agreed on terms of contract with young talented centre Michele Visser (191-C-87). The 21-year-old prospect played for the Dutch U20 National team. She participated at the U20 European championship in Division B in Lithuania with Netherlands in 2006. There she averaged 1.6 points and 2.7 rebounds per game. Renes Binnenland will become the first Eredivisie stop for the youngster. |
