Jubal tops second DCN contest in Huizen
Jubal has also topped the second Drum Corps Netherlands contest in Huizen. Juliana and Beatrix follow at 0.75 and 1.4 points respectively. The contest took place in the sunny Wolfkamer sports park where DCN had a stand built on the artificial pitch because the S.V. (sports centre) Huizen is building a new grandstand on the main field.

Jubal was strongest in almost all musical captions. They took the captions Music Effect, Field Percussion and Ensemble Muziek. Field Brass went to Beatrix. Surprisingly, Juliana came in second place and scored especially well in the Visual caption, winning both the Visual Effect and Visual Field captions. Juliana came second for Ensemble Visual. Beatrix is traditionally very strong on Color Guard and this caption went to the corps from Hilversum, as well as Field Brass.
The scores of numbers four to seven (Starriders, Con Spirito, Marum and Calypso) were not far apart. With less than four points difference between the number four and the number seven and two and half months of rehearsal time to go, anything could happen during the Dutch Championships in Dordrecht on 11th September. The Devils became eighth, and have some work to do in order to make up their arrears of nearly four points behind the competition.
In the Junior Class, Johan Friso caused a surprise by surpassing Jong Beatrix and finishing just behind Jong Jubal. Jong-Holland Junioren came fourth, followed by Confetti and Jong Con Spirito. With as many as six participants in the Junior Class, the afternoon seemed a real youth festival. In the A-Class, Avalance was yet not ready to go against the more experienced Heartliner from Germany. DINDUA remained ahead of Harpe Davids in the Percussion Class.
