Eindhovense StudentenCorps Volleybal Vereniging
\n<\/strong>On the 23rd of September 1957, the very First colleges were given at the Eindhoven University of Technology. In the same week a couple of guys named Frans Blom, Jan Delahaye, Henny Schussel and Bob Smit decided to establish a student volleyball association. The association was given the name \u201cEindhoven Student Corps Volleyball association\u201d.\n\nIn the First few weeks of its existence, the interest was so big that there were two teams that could start in the NeVoBo (Dutch Volleyball Federation) competition. On the 23rd of February 1959 the first official statutes were brought out and the name \u201cHajraa\u201d is a fact<\/p>\n

E.S.C.V.V. Hajraa<\/strong>
\nWhere the name Hajraa comes from remains a mystery for many people. In the early years during a competition game there was a very loud and enthusiastic supporter. His encouragements drew lots of people\u2019s attention. The Hungarian words phonetically Huj Huj Hajraa made such a big impression on the members, that from that point they called their association E.S.C.V.V. Hajraa. By the way, the Hungarian sounds were produced by the father of Iwan Garay who would later become a trainer of Hajraa.\n\nIn the upcoming years, Hajraa growth continues and of course made some sportive successes. In the season \u201961-\u201962 Hajraa made it through to the \u201choofdklasse\u201d, at that moment the highest achievable league in the Netherlands\u00a0The Hungarian words phonetically Huj Huj Hajraa<\/em>made such a big impression on the members, that from that point they called their association E.S.C.V.V.

European accomplishments<\/strong>
\nThe first men\u2019s team of Hajraa has also represented The Netherlands multiple times at the European Student Championships. Highlights are a third place in 2002 at the championship of Athens and a second place in Malibor in 2003. In 2006 Eindhoven even placed first at the European Student Championship with both the men\u2019s and women\u2019s teams! In 2011 another second place was achieved in Warschau.<\/p>\n

Hajraa Outdoor
\n<\/strong>Ter ere van het vierde lustrum van Hajraa in 1979 werd voor het eerst het Hajraa Buitentoernooi georganiseerd. Dit evenement zou uitgroeien tot een van de grootste buitenvolleybaltoernooien van Europa dat ook nu nog jaarlijks wordt georganiseerd. Inmiddels trekt het toernooi ongeveer 4500 volleyballers uit vele landen.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

E.S.V.V. Hajraa
\n<\/strong>Towards the end of the sixties of the last century a discussion arises within Hajraa whether or not to separate from the E.S.C. One of the problems is that the abscence of Hajraa at the Corps could mean a strong backfall for the Corps. The association finally goes its own way and parts from the E.S.C. When Hajraa opens in 1973 for non-members of the Corps, the separation is a fact. The bond with the Corps is still to be seen in the logo of Hajraa.\n\nThe amount of teams increased well over the years. In the summer of 1982 Hajraa even had to refuse people to become a member of Hajraa. During the \u201988-\u201989 season for the first time in the history of Hajraa a women\u2019s team could play in the competition. Since 1991 not only academic students, but also higher professional education students can obtain a sports card, increasing the number of potential members.<\/p>\n

Competition<\/strong>
\nMomenteel komen er 10 Hajraa herenteams en 9 damesteams uit in de competitie. Dames 1 speelt 1st divisie en heren 1 speelt 2de divisie.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t
