Coming back
Life, work or a few injuries got in the way and you haven't played in years. Half the club knows the feeling, so there's no pressure to be match-fit on day one. Come back at your own pace through the lower sides, shake off the rust with people doing the same, and work your way up as far as you fancy. One of the most historic rugby club in Amsterdam.
