European Open 202027.11.2019

Wie die meisten von euch wissen, findet die Headis European Open nur noch alle zwei Jahre statt, um zum einen eine größere sportliche Entwicklung zwischen den Turnieren zu haben und zum anderen, um weiterhin dieses riesigen Headis-Fest mit hohem logistischen Aufwand feiern zu können. Alle 12 Monate wäre das nicht in der besonderen Art und Weise, die eine EO verdient, möglich. Das gesamte Wochenende wird immer zu einem riesigen Highlight und wir freuen uns jetzt schon auf die EO 2020, am 1. und 2. Mai in Tschechien. Dieses Mal in der Studentenstadt Ústí nad Labem, die sich etwa 60 Km südlich von Dresden befindet.

Bei der anstehenden EO gibt es ein paar Neuerungen!

Mädels

Die wichtigste Neuerung ist, dass ab 2020 auch die Mädels eine EO spielen! Bei der ersten EM 2015 war die internationale Spielerbasis bei den Mädels noch nicht so groß wie heute aber mittlerweile sind wir mehr als bereit für die EO mit Jungs und Mädels!

Teilnehmende Länder

Bisher waren alle offiziellen Headis-Partnerländer dazu berechtigt ihre Spieler zur EO zu schicken und haben eigene Qualis gespielt. Das bleibt grundsätzlich genauso, allerdings hat sich die Situation in Belgien und der Schweiz verändert, sodass es keine zentrale Stelle mehr gibt, um eine Quali zu organisieren. Wir lockern aber die Teilnahmebedingungen dahingehend, dass grundsätzlich jede Nation Spieler zur EO schicken kann, sofern ein paar Voraussetzungen gegeben sind.

Diese Voraussetzungen kann man auf drei Kernelemente runterbrechen:

  • Sportlicher Erfolg
  • Spielerbasis im Land
  • Kontinuität

Hierbei gibt es keine bestimmte Reihenfolge und keine genaue Gewichtung. Das Gesamtpaket muss stimmen. Bei den Jungs ist zudem wichtig, dass immer zwei Spieler antreten. Nach diesen Kriterien wird an sich jedes Land bewertet und entschieden, ob es an der EO teilnehmen darf. Bei der Teilnahme eines Land ist nicht zwingend notwendig, dass beide Geschlechter vertreten sind. Die berechtigten Länder werden hier jeweils unabhängig voneinander bewertet.

Wir haben Bock auf die EO 2020, die wieder freitags mit einem für alle offenen Weltcup-Turnier staret und samstags mit dem Showdown zur EO und einer riesigen Party endet! Es sieht sehr gut aus, dass wir euch wieder einen Reisebus zum ultrafairen Kurs anbieten können! Noch im Dezember wird die Anmeldung starten! Zum Einstimmen gibt es hier noch das Beste von der EO 2018!



Nach Leipzig ist vor Bochum!09.10.2019

Nach dem Turnier ist vor dem Turnier! Wursti und Conny haben wie immer das letzte Turnier Revue passieren lassen und blicken auf den nächsten Cup! Das Teilnehmerfeld ist kurz davor komplett ausgebucht zu sein, aber wenige Plätze sind noch frei. Viel Spaß mit der neuen Folge ‘Hass aber fair’!

Und für die Nostalgiker unter euch gibt’s den Recap vom Turnier in Bochum 2012! So manchens Gesicht von damals sieht man heute immer noch an der Platte!

Secret Santa + Round the Table

Now listen! For the first time we’ll do a Secret Santa! Everybody who takes part at this will be allowed to play the huge round-tthe-table after the tournament to win a Masters-Wildcard!

It works like this: Just bring a present for about 5 to max. 10€ and you’ll receice a tombola-batch. This batch allows you to play the round-the-table and after you finished this one you can exchange it against your new present! Of course you can write you name on the present you give away to the one who receives it, knows where it comes from.

We’re ready for the great review of this insane year 2019

Party

At the party we can finally go totally crazy! The Headis DJ-Team smashes some music and we prepared lots of pubspecials that you don’t wanna miss!

All this and even more awaits you at the Weihn8sköpperei! Please mind that for a free overnight stay you have to write to kevin@headis.com and then we’re ready for the biggest one-day-tournament of the year! Merry Christmas!



Headição on the road again25.09.2019

Besides our tournaments about once a month and all the things a startup is dealing with we meanwhile run our Charity Project Headição for more then 5 years now! Headição is about bringing sports to underpriviliged kids so they can move, have fun and learn together. The next international visit is about to happen.

At our last stay in South Africa we had a great cooperation with ‘Weltwärts’ und dem ASC Göttingen and due to their awesome volunteers it is guaranteed that a long-termed sports programm can be realised. That’s why we not only build the tables but also teach the volunteers how to show Headis to others. So in October we head to South Afrca – to Port Elizabeth and Jeffreys bay in new Townships and new institutions.

You can support us!

René once again does not consider himself too good for getting footballs fired at his butt! As always you can donate any amount you want. For each 5€ there will be one shot taken. Everybody who donates 5€ or more will be mentioned in the video to see if “his” shots hit René. Here you can straight up support the action!

Furthermore Carl Kenz is still an inherent part of the Headição-Team who incredibly renews old facades and brings so many smiles on so many faces of the kids and adults.

Ganz neu mit an Bord: HesherBall

Matching our motto „Balls and Colorz for the World” we also take lots of HesherBall-Sets to South Africa. The space-saving game is build up quickly and it only takes zwo sets to make a whole class move. Even very young kids can play HesherBall so the kids from elementary schools can play along together!

We’re ready to go! The plane leaves more or less right after the Headis-Tournament in Bochum – leaving on monday 14th of October. You can support us and help us visiting even more institutions worldwide to initiate programms for the kids. All donations that reach us until the 14th will count upon the amount for René Challenge!

Donate now!

Teatime Madness 201808.05.2018
Get well soon, Karate Head
HEADIS

Throwing teabags, heading into a goal wall, sushi, hot dogs, close matches, a heartbeating final and good vibes… this year’s Teatime Madness had everything. But the moment of the tournament happened before everything started. All players took a foto while doing a karate pose as a convalescence wish for the Belgium player Karate Head who cannot play for quiet some time because of an accident. Shout out to everybody for that! This is Headis!

The athletic part of the tournament started with a big upset in the second round. Headbrötchen mit Zwiebeln lost in a strongly contested game against the Slovakian player Dendiik. Great match of the former national player and a big point for slovakian Headis.

There weren’t many surprises during the tournament. The top seeded players all advanced to the semifinals, except for Sniper Schorsch who lost against the local Olaf der Wikinger who got big cheers from the crowd and ended up at the third place after a great match against Lauchgesicht.

In the final the European Champion Headsinfarkt faced the Masters winner Pressure Pete. “Instant classic” as Rolle der Schlächter would say. After a 10:7 lead in the last set for Headsinfarkt nobody believed in a comeback by Pressure Pete, except for Pressure Pete himself. The player from Kaiserslautern approved his top form of the last tournaments and won the last set by 12:10 – after his win at the masters he finally gets his first world cup title.

Rankings (Men):

  1. Pressure Pete
  2. Headsinfarkt
  3. Olaf der Wikinger
  4. Lauchgesicht

There weren’t big surprises at the women’s competition at first sight. World Champion Klausi faced FuWaTe in the first semifinal – a match that was the final at the last world cup in Brussels where Klausi won. But FuWaTe was ready and finally got her first win against Klausi since 2016. In the finals her opponent was Spiff (who won against Missing Pepper in a close two-set-match) who tried her best but couldn’t pretend FuWaTe from winning her second world cup title and jumping to the 3rd place of the world ranking.

Rankings (Women):

  1. FuWaTe
  2. Spiff
  3. Klausi
  4. Missing Pepper

Thanks to the whole Darmstadt crew for organizing an awesome tournament and to the Headis Community for celebrating and for the collective breakfast at World Headis Day. Next stop -> World Championship
