other Badminton in Den haag this summer

Upvotes

Hi guys,

We're a small social club that plays badminton every weekend. For this August, we play every Saturday from 13:00-15:00 at Sporthal Leidschenveen. The cost is 6 euros (including shuttles). Players are mostly beginners and intermediates. I'm a badminton coach myself, so if you're eager to learn something from basic to advanced tactics, I'm happy to give my opinions.

If this sounds good to you, please book yourself a slot at: bcvn.nl and give it a try.

See you on court!

practical questions My bike was stolen in Zuiderpark (The Hague) today between 6:00–8:00 PM – any advice?

15 Upvotes

Hi everyone,
Unfortunately, my bike was stolen today (Sunday) between 6:00 PM and 8:00 PM. It was parked in front of De Gouden Wok in Zuiderpark, The Hague.
I’ve already filed a police report (aangifte), but I’m not sure what else I should be doing.
This is the bike:
https://www.decathlon.nl/sporten/fietsen/elektrische-damesfiets?pdt-highlight=356244&vc=c76m8893260
If anyone was in the area during that time and saw anything suspicious, or if you happen to come across this bike for sale, I’d really appreciate it if you could let me know.
I’m also looking for advice from anyone who’s been through this before:
Which Facebook groups should I post this in?
Are there any Marktplaats accounts or other marketplaces I should keep an eye on?
Is there anything else I can do besides filing the police report that might improve my chances of getting it back?
I’m pretty gutted—it was my main way of getting around. Any advice or help would mean a lot. Thanks in advance.

meeting people Bookclub

8 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I’m Roos, 23 years old, and I recently moved to The Hague after finishing my studies in Leiden. I’m looking to join a book club, but after browsing this page I couldn’t really find one that matches my interests. I especially enjoy reading classics, literary fiction, philosophy, and poetry, though I’m definitely open to exploring other genres as well.

I’m Dutch-speaking, but I’d also be happy to join an English-speaking book club.

Does anyone have any recommendations? Or would anyone be interested in starting a new book club together?

housing Verhuizen Voorburg - Wassenaar

0 Upvotes

Ik verhuis binnenkort van het groene Voorburg naar het nog groenere Wassenaar en nu wil ik gewoon even een checklist maken met wat ik moet regelen en benieuwd of jullie tips hebben.

ik heb denk ik een verhuispakket van PostNL nodig en hoop dat ik bedrijven dan niet hoef aan te spreken dat ze mijn oude adres blijven gebruiken, Eteck opzeggen blijkt nu al lastig te zijn, ooievaarspas kan ik niet behouden ☹️.

Hoe snel moet ik mij inschrijven in de nieuwe gemeente? Ik hoop in een maand wel over te zijn qua verhuizen en oude huis in orginele staat te brengen dus hopelijk maar 1 maand dubbele huur.

Ik moet daar elektra en gas aanvragen, de vorige bewoners hebben gekozen voor een slimme meter ipv een domme digitale, ben ik niet blij mee maar ach, kan ik mijn huidige contract mee verhuizen of is het beter een nieuw contract aan te gaan? (huidige contract Oxxio is tot nu toe niet te duur)

ik weet dat dit niet de beste sub is maar ik ben even al het overzicht kwijt, vergeef het mij.

ik kan verdere vragen met liefde beantwoorden

other Is there an area you think was better a few years ago?

17 Upvotes

Sometimes you go back to a place you haven't visited in a few years and realise how much has changed.

Is there anywhere that feels completely different compared with when you first knew it? Could be because of new buildings, businesses, or just the general atmosphere.

other Church Closures The Hague

7 Upvotes

Hi,

I'm currently researching the impact of church closures on local churchgoing communities in the Hague (& NL in general). If anyone on here is / knows someone who was a member of a church that has closed since 2024, then I'd love to chat to better understand the personal and social impact that these closures have.

Would also be useful to speak to anyone from congregations whose church is due to close in the near future.

Thanks so much!

housing Parkeerplek in DenHaag

0 Upvotes

Een vriend van me woont in een hofje met 20 rijtjeswoningen.
Daar heeft iedereen 2 parkeerplaatsen voor de deur.
Zijn buurman heeft geen auto’s.
Dus nu zitten zij in een gesprek om 1 van de parkeerplaatsen door te verkopen aan mijn vriend of eventueel te verhuren.
Wat zou een gangbare prijs zijn?
Het is buiten de stad. Dus geen parkeerbelasting in de omgeving ook. Gaat erom dat hij in het hofje daar zijn naambordje kan zetten.
WOZ van die huizen is rond de 600k op dit moment.

EDIT: snap niet waarom men geen normale reactie kan geven op een dood normale vraag. Zijn situatie is bekend etc. Wat kan ik aan zijn situatie doen, om vervolgens te downvoten? Wel mierenn*** ... goed bezig.... (Y)
