A perfect day of roundnet draws to a close. You and your friends, faces flushed with exertion and exhilaration, collapse onto the pristine turf field, the gentle sound of waves lapping at the nearby shore a soothing lullaby.

Frequently Asked Questions and Answers
I have just started playing roundnet. Is this holiday just for "pro" players?
We encourage players of all levels to participate. REFRESH is not focused solely on performance but more on creating social connection via the sport of roundnet and common activities.
Will there be coaching at REFRESH?
Yes and no - it is up to YOU!. We are working closely with roundnet clubs to see if they want to bring their own coaches or learn from ours. However, if you wish to be coached by any of the Future Roundnet Coaches or other elite coaches, let us know on Instagram or via Email and we will see what we can do :)
1.11.24 is Friday, can I stay longer?
Yes, we can facilitate accommodation for you till 3.11.24 or possibly even longer. Just let us know by email.
My club has not joined REFRESH, can I book alone?
Of course. You will be put on our solo list and put in touch with other solo travelers. There, you will make plans and find your new roommates. Otherwise, you can also inquire about single occupancy room:).
Do I need to be an active roundnet player to participate?
Absolutely NOT! Anyone can join our "REFRESH." However, most people will have some affiliation with the sport of roundnet - former/active player, partner of a player etc.
Why don't we go to Mallorca like at FRESH?
It the words of a famous German singer Peter Wackel in the song "Scheiß drauf": "Malle ist nur einmal im Jahr" - "Mallorca is just once a year"!
