FIRST
HALF On Saturday
Vaulen had the chance to get a bigger lead on the table against Åkra,
but instead of samba football it became siesta for the home team that lost
2-4. But it was Vaulen that took the lead at Hinna stadion. A play trough
pass from right full back Jan Erik Ahlstrand Pedersen found Pedro Salgado
on a run, he raided past two players before he found striker partner Inge
Martin Hinna with a brilliant pass. Hinna showed class when he placed
the ball in the longest corner behind an outplayed Ståle Oldeide
in the Åkra goal.
Now the around 60 spectators believed
that Vaulen should confirm the place around their hegemony, but not this
time around. The half hour were played when Morten Vea forced down the
right side, with only the goalie in front of him Vea placed it past
a chance less Tom Arne Bø Pedersen.
What about the Beachboys? After
having surfed on a wave this season they now seemed to had lost the edge.

The players didn't found each others
and there became distant in the team. Åkra on the opposite side got
confidence of the goal and the rolled up attack after attack with their
click-clack football down the sides, only good Vaulen defenders in Salvesen
and Gysland and a good goalie avoided Åkra taking the lead at half
time.
SECOND HALF At half time
Vaulen changed to a 4-3-3 system, meanwhile Ekholdt replaced Hinna. The
fishermen from Karmøy started the half with a shock. A splendid
pass from the midfield found Morten Vea, that elegantly
lobbed the ball over Bø Pedersen in Vaulen's goal.
The goal gave Åkra another
vitamin injection, and when substitute Henning Stava scored on his
first touch after 63. minutes was the game actually over. The same man
was in focus five minutes later. A throw-in found Stava with the back against
the goal, an inpatient Vaulen player gave a little push in the Åkra
player and the referee pointed at the penalty spot. A strict decision by
the referee, that though kept the same line throughout the whole game.
The chubby right full back Knut Boge got the chance from the penalty
spot and found the net to the left of Vaulen's keeper. Inge Martin Hinna
was the man behind Vaulen's biggest chance this period, his shot from outside
the box curled in the post and out in play.
With a 4-1 lead Åkra relaxed
a bit and Vaulen got more initiative in the end. With ten minutes to go
Eirik Ekholdt ran through but was brutally stopped by Oldeide. the referee
answered by handing Åkra's last man a yellow card. It wouldn't had
been anything to say if he had showed the red card in that situation as
Ekholdt was in a clear scoring position. However Vaulen got their goal
of consolation after 87. minutes. Skipper Jarle Eike passed an eminent
inside pass from the middle of the pitch to Stein-Ivar Andersen on the
right winger. Somehow the ball went in a bow over to Eirik Ekholdt that
was ready on the second post. Ekholdt is not the one that need to
be asked twice, after he got the ball he fired it home with his right foot
above the tall Åkra goalie.
Åkra could travel home with
a 4-2 win in the bag, while Tore Haugvaldstad's boys now can see the first
league loss is a fact.
VAULEN RAN OUT OF LUCK: Haugvaldstad's
lucky shirt could avoid the club from loosing
Vaulen
joins Helteligaen
03.06.02:
Vaulen have joined a lower division 'dream team' competition called Helteligaen.
The game at www.zporty.no give
you the chance to compose a team from the local divisions. Foootball expert
Egil 'Kistå' Christensen rated the players against Åkra. Check
out Vaulen's site here!
Vaulen
hope Tommen can stay
04.06.02:
Vaulen will now seek a permission from the Norwegian military for their
keeper phenomenon Tom Arne Pedersen. He is told to travel to Sessvollmoen,
but Vaulen will do all they can to move his duty locally. The 18 year old
have played all of Vaulen's league games this season, and is seemed on
as an important player in the squad both on and off the pitch. Vaulen have
therefor applied to get Bø Pedersen moved to Madlaleiren instead.
The popular youngster that joined the club from Vidar in front of this
season is not only an important player, he have also been coach for SK
Jarl's U-13 boys team the last two years. Both Jarl and Vaulen will now
hope that they can keep their key man. The Mariero raised starlet will
this summer end his studies at Bryne Vidergående.
Keeper
school
04.06.02:
Vaulen had invited 'keeper talents in the club for a special training session
this weekend on Vaulen Badeplass. With manager Tore Haugvaldstad as their
coach, there was much to learn for the youngsters as well as getting inspiration
from the former star 'keeper. The former Viking and Bryne player is a resource
to the club, he have a D course and have been coach for several local clubs.
In fact he was linked to the post at Tippeliga side Bryne in the 2001 season.
His talents work have already sent the young first team to the top of the
third division. Hopefully will we see even more results from the Youth
work in some years time. Vaulen Beachboys have got pictures from the 'keeper
school.
05.06.02:
Vaulen eye new points when they travel to Kopervik on Saturday. However
will they miss two players due to exams, Jarle Eike and Anders Idsø
are forced to stay at home. Also defender Bjørn Helge Husebø
can't travel to Kopervik due to work, meaning that boss Tore Haugvaldstad
must rotate a bit on the team. Ole Bjørn Bredesen is still on the
injury list, but he have now done some light running. However will new
signing Kim Henriksen from Tasta travel with the team.

Kopervik have
done well lately, last Friday they played 1-1 away to Buøy. Last
season KIL managed to survive on defensive cynicism, admits their manager
Bengt Førland. "Every game was like a cup game last autumn. We won
several games 1-0 without entertaining at all. But we managed what we wanted,
and that is now history," said Førland.
Haugesund born
Førland was their savior man last season however there have been
conflict inside the the club about the playing system. This season Bengt
wants to attack with a 4-3-3 tactic. "This winter we have almost not trained
defensively. Our focus have been forward on the pitch. We focus on structure
and defined roles to each player," continued the 27 year old. KIL that
play at the fantastic stadium Åsebøen look forward to a good
season. "We as everyone else will struggle with injuries on keyplayers.
Our central line have expirence and I think we can end in top six in the
end," continued the manager that aim for 2. division football in a three
years period.
Kopervik's
perhaps most known player is Knut Ystaas that was a period in FK Haugesund,
now is he back where it all started as assistant player manager. Kopervik
have though missed important Roger Jakobsen to Vard in front of this season.
More woes
for Tore
06.06.02: Nor
Jan Tore Kleiberg and Bjarne Hov can play the game against Kopervik, from
earlier we know that Ole Bjørn Bredesen, Bjørn Helge Husebø,
Jarle Eike and Anders Idsø can't travel with the team. Kleiby will
miss out as he is to work at his house project at Gausel, while Barni will
miss out as he will travel to Biri and look at his horse. Hov is part owner
of several horses. most known is perhaps four year old "Sweet Revenge".
With all the decays will Marius Veseth now be added to the squad that travel
with the coach to Kopervik on Saturday morning. VZ that also is known from
cinema
commercials, have trained with the team lately and is rated good
enough despite he miss some fitness after knee problem the last three years.
With several players
missing is it likely that Tore Haugvaldstad now will choose a defensive
tactic. Perhaps 4-5-1 with one of the central defenders Aasland, Salvesen
or Gysland moved up as an anchor in the midfield.
Berntsen
will help Vaulen
07.06.02: Viking
plan to build a new stadium in Jåttåvågen near Hinna
stadion and a top class training field nearby. However Viking Director
Bjarne Berntsen tell that Vaulen not can be allowed to play their games
at their modern training facilities. This despite the club is amongst the
best clubs in the district and use Hinna IL's astro turf as their match
arena. "With a move to Jåttåvågen it will be of massive
importance to build a training ground of top quality. This can only be
used by Viking, it's not possible to keep a good enough quality if several
teams should use it," Berntsen told the Vaulen Beachboys site. Viking's
youth set up will stay at Eiganes as today when Viking move away from Stavanger
stadion. But eleven league games with two times 45. minutes a season on
gras seems unlikely for the promising third division side. "A training
ground of gras will not manage more than 10 hours use every week to keep
a top quality," claim the Director. However was Jåttåvågen
chosen by it's football environment.
Here are area
enough for football, Hinna stadion is nearby, meanwhile a new secondary
school with a football set up is planned. Also plans for an indoor hall
is in the early stages. "When it comes to training facilities for other
clubs in this area we are in a good dialog with Hinna Fotball and we will
help them with pushing forward with their meanings regarding the discussion
with Stavanger's council about new training areas for Hinna and Vaulen,"
explain Berntsen.

PARENTAL
ADVISORY: "Better than pussy." Landsnes was more than pleased with
his fantastic volley goal.
Vaulen
started in a 4-5-1 formation with the normal back five, in midfield were
Landsnes and Ekholdt playing wide while Henriksen was behind Andersen and
Salgado in the center. Alone up front was Hinna.
FIRST HALF As expected
Vaulen got a hard challenge in the tropical heat on Åsebøen
Stadion. Without the four central players Eike, Idsø, Kleiberg and
Bredesen, the team missed a lot of their running stamina and creativity
that have characterized Vaulen this year.
Kopervik had
respect for the league leaders and Vaulen had a couple of chances early
on. After a while the home team got more control. Long balls was kicked
upwards their lanky striker Knut Olav Ystaas, that was good in heading
down to the hard working midfield. This resulted in two quick goals before
half time.

SECOND HALF Also second
half started well for Vaulen, but the team should idle. Little happened
the next half hour. But then Alexander "Faxe" Landsnes managed a fantastic
volley, from 25. meter that found the opposite top corner. The temperature
on the pitch and in the stands went to the boiling point. An enormous pressure
from Vaulen could had led into an equalizer, but it wasn't to be. Kopervik
took three deserved points. Vaulen traveled from Karmøy without
points, but with the honor. More important than getting points from the
northern part of the county is to take the scalp on Buøy, Tasta,
Randaberg and not at least Vardeneset, that is our next opponent on Hinna
stadion on Thursday at 19.00.
PS:
Hildén picked up his third yellow card in the game and will now
be suspended for the next game, but with Øystein Winstnes back Tore
now got options. Also Tommen will miss the game as he will travel away,
meaning that Bjarne Hov will play.
NEW FACES:
Marius Veseth (left) and Øystein Winstnes (right) with comeback,

Nevland
hopes on Vardeneset at Thursday
09.06.02: Vaulen's
next opponent is Vardeneset. Norwegian international Erik Nevland's favorite
club. "In the third division is Vardeneset my team," admits the Viking
ace. Vaulen have done well this season, but have now lost twice in a row
before the meeting with Vardeneset. "To be honest I haven't paid so much
attention to Vaulen, but Vaulen have lost lately and that is good for VBK,"
said the 24 year old striker. Nevland have gone the grades in Viking and
have played with some of the Vaulen players there. "I have played together
with Idsø, Landsnes and Ingis, if they still are in Vaulen then,"
said Nevland that also forgot some names in the hurry. Having played for
Manchester United he is the right man to compare David Beckham and Alexander
Landsnes, after Landsnes wonder goal this weekend. "I'm sure Landsnes shoots
harder, but Beckham have a larger precision," Nevland told Vaulen Beachboys.
Vardeneset
preview
11.06.02:
Vaulen
boss Tore Haugvaldstad had no problems to admit Kopervik was the best team
on Saturday. "It was okay that Kopervik won the game. They played best,"
Haugvalstad told Stavanger Aftenblad.
For the game
against Vardeneset will Vaulen miss Tom Arne Bø Pedersen in goal
as he will be involved in "Russe" celebrations. This mean that Bjarne Hov
will be back in the goal. Else will left full back Erik Hildén miss
the game as he is suspended after three yellow cards this season. Alternatives
can be Øystein Winsnes (pictured) that now goes for a come-back.
Against Kopervik
were Idsø (exams), Eike (exams), Kleiberg (house building), Husebø
(work) and Bredesen (injury) missing. However is it likely that most of
them will be available for this game.

The game is also
on Langoddsen. A Vaulen win gives 2.15 times back the money, while Vardeneset
is slightly favorites with 2.10, a draw gives back 3.20.
PS:
The referee in the Torvastad game have register a yellow card on Jan Tore
Kleiberg, instead of Ole Bjørn Bredesen that got the card. The referee
have written wrong, and the local football association, RFK, can't change
it before they get the approval from the referee. It's not yet decided
if the club will contact the referee.
Vardeneset are
one of the biggest clubs in Rogaland with 900 members. Last season Vardeneset
ended as number five in the third division, but it was said that they could
had been amongst top three with a larger squad. This season Vardeneset
have got a more even squad, with new important additions. Jostein Breivik
have done comeback. He have earlier played for Randaberg and Brommapojkarane.
He is a clear strength to the team. Also Even Klinkenberg was added to
the team, but the former Viking and Vidar player have been a lot injured
this season.
Vardeneset boss Ole Søyland
think there will be less goals between the two teams this season than last
year. Then Vaulen first won 6-4, and later lost 1-6. "I don't think that
there will be that many goals this year, both team are better in defense
this year. This year we also got an even squad, perhaps too even! We have
got in new faces, most known are perhaps Jostein Breivik and Asle Nordahl
from Randaberg."
For Thursday is Even Klinkenberg
likely to miss out. "Even is ill so he is doubtful, but he have missed
games before so that will be no problem." With Even missing Ole is forced
to make a new striker duo. "Trond Jensen and Richard (Enge) are food players
that means a lot. But Richard is far away from the form he had last year."
Despite only two trainings a week
Søyland aim high. "We have as goal to be at least as good as last
year."
Søyland have seen a lot of
Vaulen this season and know what that expects. "I have seen Vaulen three
times this year. One very solid against Buøy. Then the two games
against Sandnes and Åkra that was weak performances. Vaulen is a
good team with many very fine type of players on the team that will do
well. I think it will be an equal game and wish Vaulen well," told Ole.
Previously
have Vardeneset been seemed on as a good technical team that was better
to attack than defend, but this season have VBK managed to defend their
goal better. "That Vardeneset is a technical team is true I guess," Vardeneset
fan Kristian Vestbø tell Vaulen Beachboys. "After all it's more
fun to win 4-3 than 1-0. But the defense have been our best part of the
team this season. Assistant coach Gunnar Tjelta have re-educated Svein
Roar Henriksen to central defender this year. A smart move by the man that
is told to be the miracle man from Tasta.
Before this
season was it expected that Vardeneset boss Ove Søyland should use
Richard Enge and Even Klinkenberg up front as his striker duo. Enge that
was topscorer in the 3. division last season, and Klinkenberg that was
seemed on as one of the biggest talents in Stavanger some years ago. "The
striker duo Richard Enge and Even Klinkenberg doesn't exists any longer.
Richard have lately played as left winger, while Even have been injured,
Instead have youngsters like Trond Henriksen and Elias Bob Ackermann done
well."
Star striker
Erik Nevland is a Vardeneset fan, and he will maybe come to the game. "It's
not a secret that Erik Nevland have a heart that beat for Vardeneset. He
see some games. Also former giants like Egil Fjetland, Jan Fjetland, Morten
Myhre and Mark Trotter often comes to watch the team."
Vardeneset
won the POL final this winter, and have done quite well this season. But
the game against Vaulen is not seemed on as easy. "We will be pleased with
one point on a neutral stadium at Hinna. Actually we thought the second
season should be more difficult that it have been, but the quality on the
teams is poor. Vardeneset is actually the best team in the group and they
could had promoted if they really wanted. But then isn't it enough to train
twice a week," said Vestbø.
Was the
referee coming from a Vorspiel?
12.06.02: Vaulen
C - Kvitsøy 0-3 Referee:
Eirik Sunde, Vaulen Beachboys (a catastrophe in easy game)
League leaders
Vaulen C welcomed Kvitsøy on Vaulenbanen last night. On the paper
this seemed as an easy game for Beachboys. Kvitsøy came to Vaulen
with only seven men, but got unexpected help from an eight, referee
(our own) Eirik Sunde!
Vaulen started the game clearly
best and had several big chances. But they didn't managed to get the ball
over the line before in the second half. Vaulen's very good midfielder,
Lie putted the ball in the net. But according to referee Sunde the goalie
saved laying behind the goal!
Frustrated Vaulen players didn't
managed to get their play going, and Kvitsøy took the lead just
before half time. In second half Vaulen pressed for an equalizer but then
it happened as it always does with counter attacks to the opposite team.
Kvitsøy got two goals in the end. With that Vaulen got their first
loss for the season. Kvitsøy played very good tactically, with five
men in defense, a striker, and then the referee Sunde in the middle. But
in total a deserved win for Kvitsøy.
Yellow cards:
Inge Martin Hinna (Vaulen) and Kjetil Vestbø (Vardeneset)
Referee:
Sigve Jan Melby (Buøy)
A chilly breeze
surrounded the local derby between Vaulen and Vardeneset. Beachboys had
made quite a few changes since Saturday. Hov took the number one jersey
with Bø Pedersen away. While a suspended Hildén was replaced
by Aasland on the left full back. In midfield were Jarle Eike and Anders
Idsø back in central positions, meaning that it was time for 4-4-2
again. Landsnes continued at the right side of the midfield while Andersen
was on the left. Hinna and Salgado got the chance up front.
TRIBUTE T-SHIRT:
Anders Idsø celebrated his goal with pulling his shirt over his
head and show a t-shirt with a picture of Eirik Sunde's characteristic
finger.
VARDENESET
PLAYERS: Kjetil "Mølby" Vestbø and Richard Enge in good
mood before the game.
FIRST
HALF This game
was between number one and three on the table, but it took a while before
the players dared to do the unexpected. However it was Vaulen that managed
to keep the ball best in their team.
There was
really not that many chances to each of the teams in the first half hour.
For Vaulen first Andersen and then Idsø had their chances inside
the box, but Vardeneset came closest with Richard Enge, he ran trough in
the middle and really only had to shot the ball past Hov. But quick Salvesen
showed class as he managed to run it up. Vaulen failed to create much,
therefor Haugvaldstad made his first change after 25. minutes putting in
Ekholdt for Hinna.
After 37.
minutes Vaulen got a free kick. Anders Idsø curled in a wonderful
free kick that found skipper Jarle Eike'shead. The ball
made a bow over the tall keeper, Ulseth, and the ball found the back of
the net to make it 1-0 to Vaulen. But Vaulen should not manage to keep
their lead until half time. A VBK corner from the right found their defender
Ole
Kristian Dahl that made it 1-1 with a header from short range.

After the equalizer
there were fueled a lot more of aggression into the game. After a duel
and some wrangling between Ekholdt and their right full back, a punch from
the Vardeneset hit Ekholdt in the face. But the incident happened away
from the ball action and none of the three referees saw the incident. The
Vardeneset player later made an apology to the Vaulen striker.
SECOND HALF One change
was made at half time as Hinna and Ekholdt changed between playing and
being on the bench again. At the start of the half it was back to where
it all started with the ball stucked in the middle of the pitch. Vaulen
had a big chance with Salgado, but alone with the keeper his shot went
wide. After 55. minutes Vardeneset had a lovely shot with their hairy and
tricky right winger that looked just like a football cartoon hero. With
the outside of his wrist he curled the ball just over the bar and Bjarne
Hov. After the hour Vaulen changed their tactics as Landsnes was pulled
into a more central role. Together with Idsø he was in front of
the defensive alibi Eike. Andersen remained on the left winger as Vaulen
played something between a distorted 4-4-2 and 4-3-3. Or perhaps it was
the "diamond" or the "christmas tree" for all I know.
It was Hinna
that had Vaulen's biggest chance in this period, but he missed alone with
the goalie instead he was booked for attack on the goalie. Hinna's second
yellow card this season, meaning that he will be suspended if he get one
more. With a quarter to go Hinna went off for Ekholdt to re-enter the stage.
Also fans favorite Øystein Winsnes should get his season debut at
home only minutes later, as he replaced Aasland on the left full back.
"Winst" should soon send away some great offensive passes to make Vaulen
look more dangerous. Dark clouds was now hanging above Hinna stadion, after
nice sunny weather earlier on the day. Then out of nothing Vaulen gave
away an easy goal. A pass found an unmarked Richard Enge at their
right side, he advanced towards Bjarne Hov. With no mistakes he putted
on the cold shower, 1-2 with ten minutes to go. Now Vaulen really started
to move forward with more and more players and several chances was created
down both sides. Then it was time for Anders Idsø show. He
got the ball around the penalty spot and sent away a driver that went past
the shaved goalie. Idsø's celebration sent all World Cup stars in
the shadow, as the t-shirt under his Vaulen shirt showed Eirik Sunde's
famous finger. All of Vaulen's fans jumped up and down and clapped their
hands, laughed and smiled.
Vaulen now
made a substitution as Kim Henriksen got the last six minutes or so for
Alexander Landsnes in the midfield. Vaulen and Winsnes were now circus
owners. From 20 meter Vaulen's most hairy player loaded the human canon
and fired away a fantastic shot. But Vardeneset's goalie managed to fist
it to corner.
The referee
showed the signal for one added minute, and Eirik Sunde had started to
pack his stuff when Winsnes forced down the left side once more, a cross
finally found Pedro Salgado on the "second post", he made no mistakes
and thundered in 3-2! Football is surely entertainment for the people.
The supporters hadn't stopped to dance when the referee blew for full time
only second later, as it was to be three points to Vaulen!
PEDRO IN
1000: Two lads from Sola was really nervous throughout the game. And
when Pedro Salgado scored they went totally crazy. The 3-2 goal meant a
profit at over 200 000 kroner on Langoddsen. The final whistle came only
seconds after the goal and the lucky winners ran against Pedro and gave
him 2 000 kroner. Pedro was hysterical after the game and even brought
the money with him in the shower. Pedro gave away 1000 kroner for the team
to use later in a pleasant occasion.
Omar choose
Vaulen
16.06.02:
Vaulen have now signed another player from Tasta IL. Kim Henriksen joined
Beachboys a month ago, now have also Omar Mohammed Ali decided to leave
the 'sinking ship'. Tasta is second to bottom in Vaulen's division and
there have been frustrations inside the team after only six points in nine
games.
Kim Henriksen
got his debut against Kopervik a week ago and also got some minutes in
the successive 3-2 win over Vardeneset on Thursday. Kim is characterized
as a technical gifted player with a good eye for the game. The 1978-born
player is a typical defensive anchor in the midfield and is good to distribute
the ball with his good passes. However he miss some tempo. Omar is a offensive
midfielder, but can also be used as striker. He runs a lot, have great
technical skills but is a bit light weighted and miss some at the tactical
level.

Studies
Vaulen have got
a contingent of players this season, enough to line up a whole new team!
Ten have arrived from other clubs, meanwhile have players like Holgersen
and Winsnes done comeback after some months out ot recharge the batteries.
Also Veseth have returned after some years with studies in Bergen.
Assistant
boss Svein Øksnevad (pictured) was pleased with Winsnes performance
last time, despite he only played some minutes he was rated amongst the
five best players by the local newspaper. "It was great to see 'Winston'
back in the team. I hope he now would like to continue. He lift the team,
despite he not will admit it himself."
Svein was
also pleased with the whole team, that showed moral with fighting back
from 1-2 to 3-2 in the last part of the game. "I must thank all the players
that played against VBK on Thursday. They worked hard and showed brilliant
moral!"
Saken er
Biff Sundstrøm?
17.06.02: Vaulen
Beachboys' kjendis skribent Øystein Winsnes har skrevet en epistel
om Vardenesets spillere fra quiz-laget Biff Sundstrøm, siden de
var avbildet på Beachboys-sidene nettopp. Vardenesets
gode humør forsvant etter et knepent tap grunnet Vaulens intelligente
angrepsspill. Seieren smakte nok ekstra godt for noen av Vaulens skarpe
hjerner, som har lidd en del sure nederlag mot Vardenesets Quiz-lag på
(Inge) Martinique: Biff Sundstrøm.
"Det virker
som om Sundstrøm-gjengen har det mere i hodet enn i beina" antydes
det fra Vaulen-leiren. Eller kanskje laget er avhengig av sjefsbiffen Martin
Kolnes, som ikke spilte kampen?
Ellers mente
Vardeneset-spillerne at Beachboys' internettsider virker meget bra, men
det er litt vanskelig med bare engelsk. Kanskje ikke så rart, tatt
i betraktning av at det snakkes mest Tasta-engelsk på Vardeneset...

Vaulen B tok imot
Åsenkam. på Hinna grus i går kveld. Vaulen stilte med
flere av sine stjerner, deriblant Ole Bjørn Bredesen som var tilbake
etter en skade (uheldig bytur!). Vaulen tok initiativet tidlig og Vaulens
svar på Leo, Stian Lima, dominerte midten fullstendig. Men det var
Vaulens gode høyreback, Gitle, som fant toppscorer Ekholdt med en
nydelig lissepasning. Ekholdt gjorde som han ofte gjør, rundet keeper
og satte ballen i det tomme buret. Vaulen fortsatte kjøret og fem
minutter senere kom Jan Erik Timm stupende inn fra høyre, han møtte
innlegget perfekt og stanget ballen i mål, helt utagbart for keeper.
Dette var for
øvrig goalgetter Timm's første for sesongen (og fjorårets
og året før), men jeg er sikker på at det kommer flere
fra den fronten! Etter dette slapp Vaulen Åsenkam inn i kampen, men
en feberredning av Sindre Jensen hindret scoring. Hvis århundrets
redning kom forrige hjemmekamp, så må dette være tidenes
redning! Jensen var i det umulige hjørnet og det måtte et
lykketreff til for å sette ballen i mål. Fra 30 meter satte
Åsenkam-spilleren ballen i mål i en bue over keeper.
Men Åsenkam.
kom aldri nærmere og Eirik Ekholdt kunne sette inn 3-1 rett før
pausen.
I 2.omg. kontrollerte
Vaulen kampen og bare rodde seieren i land. Vaulen er dermed oppe på
3. plass i en veldig jevn serie.

Round up
- Week 25
21.06.02: GUTTER
15 TO THE TOP! Vaulen's great U-15 team won the spring league
division 1 for teams from the Stavanger region. There was really never
any doubt about the outcome. With the maximum of eight wins, and 31-7 in
goal difference - coach Bent Lie (pictured) must be pleased with his boys.
Stats
here!
ØKSNEVAD
Assistant boss Svein Øksnevad will not be in the dugout during Vaulen's
two next games due to holiday. While Beachboys play FKH2 and Randaberg
will Svein be in Denmark together with the family. "I will travel on Sunday,
and return 3. July. I hope to reach the Torvastad game," said Svein.
RESERVES
LOST Vaulen B lost 1-2 at home to Malmheim this midweek. According
to the reports Vaulen had deserved at least one point from the game.
HUSEBØ
QUITS Defender Bjørn Helge Husebø have decided
to quit in Vaulen. Husebø joined the team at the start of the season
from neighbors Hinna. 'Bønna' got one league apperance for Vaulen.
EIA IN ITALY Eirik Sunde

Haugesund
preview
21.06.02: Vaulen
still lead the division in front of the game against FK Haugesund away
on Monday. Last time Beachboys were loosing 1-2 with under ten minutes
to go. But a late goal from 30 year old Pedro Salgado gave Vaulen a 3-2
win in the end. "We struggled in a game that was dominated by much duel
play," explain Pedro Salgado to Stavanger Aftenblad. His goal came in extra-time,
and it gave him a 2 000 kroner 'bonus' from some lucky gamblers that earned
198 800 kroner on their bet. "I'm not sure about whom they were, neither
I know their names. Actually I have never seen them before," said the former
Figgjo and Sola player.
Pedro gave away
half of the money to the team. "It wasn't only due to me that we won,"
laughed Salgado.
Looking at
the team for Monday will only Alexander Landsnes miss out, he is on vacation
in Thailand with Sondre Urban. Else will Erik Hildén be back from
suspension, while Ole Bjørn Bredesen now is back having played for
the Reserves this week.
FK Haugesund's
Reserve team is lead by Asbjørn Helgeland and Bjørn Helge
Olsen. Both with a past in the club. Helgeland was amongst others the man
behind the 2-0 goal versus Viking in FKH's famous win in 1997. 'Rocket'
Olsen was a key player when FKH promoted in 1996. The game will not be
played at Haugesund Stadion, instead Sakkestad gras will be used. This
as the local council don't want to have 3. division games played at their
best stadium, FKH's first team and Vard have the first priority. However
is Sakkestad rated as the second best stadium in the town. With a good
pitch and fine facilities.
FK Haugesund
2 can be reduced in their game against Vaulen. The first team have a hard
schedule with a league game on Sunday (Tromsdalen) and a cup game on Wednesday
(Start). Meanwhile will Jone Samuelsen (from Kvernevik), Christian Grindheim
and Jan Kjell Larsen be away on national duties for Norway's U-19 team
from 24. - 28. June. Samuelsen and Grindheim is first team player, while
Larsen often play for the FKH Reserves.
FKH2 have
been in a good form lately, last time the played 1-1 away to Buøy
despite they used many junior players. In the game before they won 1-0
against Ulf. Former Vidar defender Ronny Espedal can take a lot of credit
for that. "A solid game by us. Ulf didn't came to a chance, so good was
FKH 2 defensively," said Leader of Sport, Bjørn Helge Olsen. He
is not sure what team they will use against Vaulen. "What team we use against
Vaulen depends on many variables, amongst them the injury situation in
the first team. The team is a mixture of players from our recruit squad
and first team players that not will play the game on Sunday."
Haugesund
game called off!
23.06.02: Vaulen's
game against Haugesund 2 on Monday have been postponed due to the first
football strike in Norway ever. The player organization NISO haven't managed
to get trough their demands with the clubs and NHO. NFF have therefor decided
that all teams in Tippeligaen and the 1. division not should play their
games, but also Reserve teams to the professional clubs are not allowed
to play. Instead will Vaulen therefor train as normal on Monday.

Randaberg
preview
25.06.02:
With the planned Haugesund game on Monday called of due to strike, is it
now two weeks ago since last Vaulen match. On Thursday is it time for rivals
Randaberg at Hinna Stadion. Vaulen boss Tore Haugvaldstad only miss Jan
Tore Kleiberg that build on his house and Alexander Landsnes that is on
vacation in the Far East.
Guest Randaberg
have struggled this season and are currently third from bottom, it seems
like a generation change give them problems. Randaberg used more money
than they could earn in the 2. division, and after the relegation they
were forced to sink their ambition level. But vice chairman in Randaberg,
Morten Bjørkelund, claim that promotion to the division above still
is the goal. "Everybody should be aware of our goal that still are play
in the 2. division. The most easy way would had been to open that wallet
and buy us back, but we have seen others in the division system do that.
This have several places destroyed the effort inside in the club," claimed
Bjørkelund.
Yellow cards:
Three Randaberg players
Referee:
Cosmin Dima (Kopervik)
Manager
Tore Haugvaldstad had made some cosmetic changes on the team since last
game. Bjarne Hov continued in goal, while Øystein Winsnes got his
first start of the season on the left full back. In midfield had Tore decided
to start with Kjetil Aasland in a defensive role with Eike and Idsø
in front of him. Andersen had a more traditional winger role at the left.
Up front was Ekholdt and Salgado.
FIRST HALF Vaulen's three
biggest chances in the first half was all very equal, headers on passes
from the sides. First a cross from the left by Andersen to Salgado, but
he headed high over. Then a precise Ahlstrand Pedersen cross from the right
to Aasland, but the header shouldn't find the net. It was also 0-0 after
the third attempt, this time it was Ekholdt that found Salgado from the
right. His header went just over the bar.
After a quarter
Vaulen made a tactical change as Ekholdt went down at the right winger,
Eike fell down in a more central role while Aasland went up front.
After 28.
minutes Eirik Ekholdt broke his thumb in a duel with the goalie, Ekholdt
tried to play on with the pain but had to go off ten minutes later. Kim
Forgaard Henriksen replaced "Fast Eddi".

SECOND HALF Ekholdt was
back in the team after the break, with his right hand covered in sport
tape. Henriksen was back on the bench. After 60. minutes Randaberg took
the lead. Their striker Henning Frode Holm was passed through and
made no mistakes. After the goal Randaberg had an enormous chance after
a corner, luckily the ball finally went out of danger.
Vaulen had
lost their initiative and Inge Martin Hinna got the chance, he replace
Aasland up front. Vaulen psuhed forward more and more players, but Randaberg
was good to defend themselves. Defender Gysland came close, but his header
was saved by RIL's goalie.
Randaberg
was close to double their lead with 20. minutes to go. A good strike from
a Randaberg midfielder had a good direction, but was saved in athletic
manner from Vaulen's kitten in goal, Bjarne Hov.
With 10. minutes
to go Ole Bjørn Bredesen came in for Ekholdt. Meanwhile Haugvaldstad
brought Gysland up front to add some muscles. Minutes later he also took
out Winsnes and threw in Aasland up front. Vaulen now played in an old
fashioned 2-3-5 formation. This created a massive pressure, however the
tactic needed precise passes from the sides something that was of the rare
sort this afternoon. Actually was it Randaberg's goalie that created Vaulen's
biggest chance when he made an indirect free kick from 14 meters on the
six seconds rule. However was the shot from Hinna blocked by a Randaberg
player.
It ended 0-1
and for the first time this season Vaulen left the pitch without having
scored a goal. It was an even game, but Vaulen failed to create big chances.
Vaulen wasn't willing to fight for the points, then it was okay that Randaberg
got the points.
Chairman
interview
29.06.02:
Tore Haugvaldstad is on a one year contract, but Chairman Petter Bjørheim
admits that the club probably will try to continue with the same people
and methods also next year. "We haven't started yet with the process for
2003. That will start in August or September in connection with the budget.
But with the results we got at the moment, there isn't much that indicate
a change from our side. Though is it the football committee that will come
with their recommendations in the end to the board," said the former parliament
member to Vaulen Beachboys.
Vaulen is now
number three on the table, but with one game in hand is promotion still
realistic. Vaulen supporters ask themselves if Vaulen can take the step
up financial. "With promotion we must take what comes along with it. It
will be just as big challenge for the board to manage this as it will be
for the team to eventually qualify for the 2. division," ended Petter Bjørheim.
