In 2015 I was not as busy as last year when it came to blogging, mainly due to my new job and my PhD thesis. But still, the WordPress.com stats helper monkeys prepared a very nice 2015 annual report for Twenty Oh Eight. I vow that I'm gonna post more regularly again next year! In case… Continue reading My 2015 in Blogging

#rediscovered: The Final in Men’s Alternating Doubles at the 2011 German Ringtennis Ch’ships
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ReqwCXuxy_w http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7j8WrF8YGCk Yesterday, I rediscovered on my hard drive two old videos that show the final in men's alternating doubles at the 2011 German Ringtennis Championships. Christian Kämpfer and Sebastian Weber of RTG Weidenau—who won their semi-final against Timo & Rainer Hufnagel—played against Alexej Ermak and me (TSV Neubiberg), after winning our semi-final against Tobias… Continue reading #rediscovered: The Final in Men’s Alternating Doubles at the 2011 German Ringtennis Ch’ships
I’m back … and I’ve been playing some Ringtennis

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gp0GDT2VN5A If I had to choose the two most amazing moments of our trip to the world cup in South Africa, the first one would be for sure when we played ringtennis at a primary school in the township of Wattville. We went there together with Abrie Pienaar and Johan Ferreira, who are involved in… Continue reading Playing Ringtennis in a South African Township
31 days later … #Ringtennis #worldCup
It's been one month since the 2014 Ringtennis World Cup in South Africa now and I really needed those four weeks to digest all the experiences—the ones with the national team but also rather personal ones.
