01.05.02:
Vaulen C (2) 7- 1 (1) Muskel [Menn 7.div. 7er] Vaulen C opened
their season at home to last years local champions in 7-a-side, Muskel.
A strengthen Vaulen C should soon show themselves too strong for the team
from Sandnes. Manager Frode Lima made a tactical masterpiece when he gave
trust to Jostein Jensen as striker. Jensen didn't took long to send the
home team in the lead. Vaulen C dominated the game, but Muskel should anyhow
get a goal after a bit poor keeper play. Paul Tore Or fired it in for Muskel
from 15 meters.

But just before

break Vaulen boss Lima took none chances and changed keeper.
With security
at the back the Vaulen players managed to untie themselves more and Arnfinn
Kleven became the great player of the half. Kleven made it 3-1, before
Fredrik Eriksen and Poddi Olsen made it four and five. Then it was time
for Kleven show, he added it to 6-1 before he completed his hat-trick.
With that could he take the match ball with him home as a souvenir. After
this demonstration of power Vaulen C is likely to be found in the top also
this season!

Vaulen (1) 4 - 0 (0) Vedavåg/Karmøy Before so
utopian words as "second division" was heard in the crowd on Friday as
Vaulen performed one of their finest displays in their history! Vaulen
won 4-0 over a team with a budget ten times more than the mighty Beachboys!
Surprisingly
had Vaulen's Eirik Sunde stepped in as linesman just before the game, a
task he did very well.

He made none mistakes
throughout the game. But after he had to wave off a big Vaulen chance for
an offside, the fans on the opposite side could see Eia's body language
telling that it wasn't an easy decision to make.
FIRST
HALF Vaulen took
the lead after 21. minutes. Kleiby flicked the ball on to Alexander
Landsnes on the left side, he controlled the ball well and fired it
home in the opposite corner.
After an half
hour Inge Martin Hinna came in for Pedro Salgado in a tactical change.
"Aah
- Jarle Eike is a player that always does everything so sensible!" Viking
supremo and scout for the day Reidar Goa.
In
the stands was a representant from premierside Viking. Former star player
Reidar Goa (60) had been told by Viking manager Benny Lennartsson to scout
on Vedavåg's striker Morten Wiik. But he was most impressed by the
former Viking youngster Jarle Eike. That was not without reason - Jarle
"Captain Fantastic" Eike was dominating the midfield and was always choosing
the right solutions.

SECOND HALF None changes
was made at half time. Beachboys started the second half very well and
Jan Tore Kleiberg's looping headed hit the bar.
After 55.
minutes Pedro Salgado came in for Alexander Landsnes. But the opposite
change came not longer afterwards as Pedro went off with ankle problems.
Vaulen made
it two after 60. minutes with Stein Ivar Andersen. From 16 meters
at the right side of the goal he thundered it into the roof of of the net!
Manager Tore Haugvaldstad celebrated the goal as previous only seen on
Latino Sports Specials. His giant jump showed that the former keeper still
got enough elastic muscles in his lanky body.
Stein
Ivar Andersen scored his second for the day only eight minutes later,
a very similar goal where Steini came into "Steini's-shooting-area" and
gave the 'keeper no chance! This time the manager duo made a synchroned
jump, that during landing time probably could had been seen on Richter's
scale.
Vaulen's defense
was very safe during the whole game, the closest Vedavåg came was
on a shot from Kristian Størkersen. But Tommen in Vaulen's goal
fisted it over via the bar.
"I
told Steini during the warm up not to score as he always do so on training."
Øksnevad
explain Stein Ivar Andersen's brace.
Between all the
goals
Vaulen's good left back Erik Hildén picked up a yellow card for
a sliding tackle. Honestly a fair decision by the referee.
"Vaulen
are kings!" Jarle
Eike puts it simple after the game.
With
a quarter to go Man of the Match, Jarle Eike, was brought down by Bjarne
Kallevik in a silly challenge. The referee gave the V/K midfielder a yellow
card, but a red color wouldn't had surprised many for this late tackle.
A knee injured Eike had to be helped off by Ahlstrand Pedersen and Svein
Øksnevad, but after the game he managed to limp around at his own.
Vaulen was really
playing well now as Vedavåg had understood that there was nothing
to get from the game. Inge Martin Hinna came closest, with his pace he
managed to snap up a pass trough. Alone with the goalie he decided to shoot,
but unfortunately the ball shaved the outside of the post.
After
83. minutes was Vaulen player Anders Idsø brought down in the box.
Referee Jan Øyvind Ulseth first saw if there was an advantage before
he blew for the penalty. Inge Martin Hinna stepped up and made it
4-0! That was in fact a goal most of the 40 people in the crowd didn't
noticed as they joked with Ole Bjørn Bredesen instead. Oli was to
come in for Stein Ivar Andersen at the right midfield and the people ringside
told him that he needed to score to get back his topscorer title! Tore
Haugvaldstad gave Ole Bjørn his instructions, when we heard the
players cheer. However it's believed that Hinna's penalty went in at the
right side of the 'keeper. (That can anyhow be a well kept secret, so I
will not tell the truth anyway...)
"If
Vedavåg won 7-0 against Buøy, do that mean we will win 11-0
against them?" Assistant boss Svein Øksnevad
doing his maths during the game.
With five minutes
or so to go was also Eirik Ekholdt getting a go. In fact he was close to
make it 5-0 just before the end but he failed to convert the cross from
the left.
"Without
doubt the best we have done this season." Vaulen
boss Tore Haugvaldstad.
It
was a really good game by Vaulen. Especially the second half was very entertaining,
despite the Beachboys was playing against the powers of the nature with
a low sun in their face and a slight wind against them. The whole team
was steady. Jarle Eike have already been mentioned, but also Erik "Conan
- the warrior" Gysland was a giant in the defense. His will to win brought
the others with him.
Next for Vaulen
is Tasta that lost 7-1 to Buøy on Friday, in other words a 18-1
win according to my stats...
"What do
you think? A Tippeliga referee stood behind me during the game and showed
his thumbs up." Mr. Vaulen, Eirik Sunde, was forced
to take the role as linesman just before kick off.
WHAT THE
PAPERS SAID Rogalands
Avis: Vaulen's very own Christian Lie writes: "The cats play with the
mice! Vaulen welcomed league leaders Vedavåg on their artificial
pitch at Hinna last evening. Before the game this would had been seemed
on as an even battle, but it was in fact the cats play with the mice. In
reality the game never became thrilling, and Alexander Landsnes opened
the party with a well placed shot after 20 minutes in the first half. Vaulen
had several big chances to make the lead bigger, but failed to do so in
the first half. After the break many thought Vedavåg should get help
from the wind and managed to get into the game that way. But a very good
Vaulen team was in periods rolling over Vedavåg. Steini Andersen
made it 2-0 after the hour. Ten minutes young Andersen made it another
time, with a fantastic volley shot from 16 meters. the goal was so great
that Vaulen's managers Øksnevad and Haugvaldstad did their somersault's!
Vaulen continued their race and the players was at times standing in queue
to score. Vedavåg's players became more and more frustrating in the
end and that led into several nasty challenges in the end. Vedavåg
must feel lucky that they ended the game with 11 men. The last goal was
putted in from the chalk point by Inge Martin "Inges" Hinna, after Anders
Idsø had been putted down in the box. Vaulen showed another time
that they have something big going, and home at the astro turf they can
beat anyone!
Haugesunds
Avis: HA meant the best trio on the pitch was Jarle Eike in front of
Erik Gysland and Stein Ivar Andersen. Vedavåg chairman Inge Kristiansen
explains the loss. "The players failed to handle the difficult astro pitch.
It favored the home team. But honestly, it was a deserved win to Vaulen.
We played poor."
Stavanger
Aftenblad: "Vedavåg soon came down to earth after their great
season premiere when they won 7-0 over Buøy. A spirited and hard
fighting Vaulen team impressed against one of the league favorites. After
Vaulen managed to get the ball down to the ground they created the big
chance after the other. Exciting forwards, a solid defense and with a good
Jarle Eike in the midfield it will be exciting to follow the young Vaulen
team further this season," writes Håkon Fossmark.
-We must
get our feet to the ground
04.05.02:
After
Vaulen's 4-0 win over the fishermen from Karmøy this weekend have
assistant boss Svein Øksnevad told his players and fans to get their
feets back to the ground again. The club shouldn't takes easy on the Tasta
game as the three points against league favorites Vedavåg will not
count more than the one that is to be handed out on Wednesday.

After the
game Vaulen was alone on the top of the table with maximal six points.
"Now we must keep our feets to the ground. We will meet a Tasta team that
is looking for revenge on Wednesday. So we will need to recharge until
then," warns Øksi.
Vaulen's technical players have
taken the advantage of the home pitch, against Tasta it will be a diffrent
world. "With the standard of the pitch on Tasta, it will be hard to play
as well as we did yesterday, but I think we can handle that as well," explain
the assistant.
Vaulen have now kept the goal clean
in 180 minutes. Goalie Tom Arne Bø Pedersen seems to have closed
the goal. This weekend the youngster will spend in Kongeparken as Rødruss.
See picture below:
Game goes
as planned
05.05.02: Due
to football in Premier League and the Norwegian Tippeligaen, Vaulen and
Tasta tried to move the kick off time for their game on Wednesday. "We
are working on to get the kick off moved forward to 17.30 due to Viking's
game and the season ending in Premier League," Vaulen assistant Svein Øksnevad
told Vaulen Beachboys on Sunday. But this was not easy to change, therefor
will the game now be played 19.00 as first planned.
Vaulen have
had a really good start of the season, but traditionally they struggle
against fighting teams like Tasta. Jarle Eike will be in doubt for Vaulen
after he was victim for a late challenge in the game versus Vedavåg.
Eike have a past in Tasta and hopes that he can play against his former
club.
"I have got a
little torsion in my knee, but I hope to be ready against Tasta," said
the midfielder that scored two goals against Tasta last time the two clubs
met.
Tasta is a
team that is predicted in the lower parts of the 3. division table. Their
expirenced manager duo Erik Tangen and Ingve Bøe haven't had success
in the preseason after the Hammer Larsen duo Stig and Knut left them after
last season where Tasta ended as number seven. Tasta have however strengthed
their team with the likes of Jan Håstø (Sandnes), Tallat Abunima
(Vardeneset) and Thomas Justad (Vidar) but there is quality diffrences
inside the team. So far this season have it been various results. They
lost 2-0 against Hundvåg in the cup, but won at home to Ulf Sandnes
in their league premiere. However they lost 7-1 to Buøy last time,
according to the reports was Tasta then frightenly weak. Experts will say
that Tasta is a ineffective team that will win their points by fighting
at home on their bumpy stadium. However they are well trained and should
give the league leaders a real fight.
Last season
Vaulen lost 2-5 at home to Tasta in their nervous 3. division debut. Vaulen
also lost away to Tasta 3-4 and should be looking for revenge now.
Unlucky
Reserves
06.05.02: Høle
2 - 2 Vaulen B Vaulen B played
2-2 away to Høle this warm evening with assistant boss Svein Øksnevad
looking for players for the first team. Goalscorers for Vaulen was Eirik
Ekholdt and Jone Holgersen. Vaulen was unlucky and got two penalties againts
them. Beachboys also played much of the game at Høle grasbane with
10 men after Vaulen's Henrik Seiffert was sent off.
Next game
for the Reserves is already on Friday when they meet Suldal at home.
Barbeque
at the club house
07.05.02:
The
A, B and C team will this weekend arrange a "barbeque evening" for players,
managers and the staff around the senior teams. The party will find place
in the club house and in the green garden on Friday evening.
The old house
is likely to be demolished just before the New Year as the club is to build
a new club house close to Vaulenbanen. Vaulenhuset that Vaulen got from
the local councils several decades ago for a symbolic fee of 1 krone. So
this will be a good oppurtunity to celebrate the club that at the moment
are amongst the top clubs in the town, but also an old house with a lot
of good memories.
So will this be
the absolute last party? Will Tore come this time after he read the oh
so realistic detective novel last easter on this site..? Will Vaulen's
famous band Ordrenekt have a gig? Questions will be answered on Friday.
The real fun start after the B-team game, but it's allowed to come earlier.
Vaulenhuset
Our latest
information from the club on the upgrade of Vaulenbanen told that wardrobes
and pyloon lights was to be installed this summer. The club also hope to
get a new club house realised in the autumn. In a document dated 10. March
leader in Vaulen, Petter Bjørheim, told Vaulen's plan.
"Vaulen have
achieved to get the football stadium regulated, and even been granted money
for pylon light and wardrobes on Vaulenbanen. This will be financed by
the council. The club house will be paid by the club at their own. We will
cover some of the expenses with sponsorships deals from the industry,"
said Bjørheim that hopes many wants to have their logo along the
pitch and at the club house.
Vaulen
continue their run
08.05.02:
Tasta (1) 1 - 3 (1) Vaulen Vaulen boss
Tore Haugvaldstad chosen a 4-4-2 formation with Jan Tore Kleiberg back
in the midfield. Jarle Eike was unable to play after he failed to return
from his knee ligament that he picked up during last game against Vedavåg.
FIRST HALF Vaulen's aim
for this game was simple; to get three points. After about 40 seconds was
the ball in the net behind Tommen. A Tasta player managed a beautiful lob
from around 25 meters that nicely went down in the corner of the net.

After this Tasta
had their best period in the game; they won the duels and was far more
aggressive. But Tasta wasn't able to keep up their start, Vaulen should
therefor get more and more control. It therefor came like no surprise when
Alex
Landnes fighted in the equalizer after 20. minutes.
The rest of
the half was dominated by long balls and not much delicate play.
SECOND
HALF The second
half should be better from Vaulen. Tasta was revealed! While Tasta continued
with their hopeless long passes, Vaulen managed to get more structure on
their play. This led into several chances. The leading goal came in the
60. minute on a penalty from Inges Hinna; after Alex had been put
down by the keeper.
In the 75.
minute Pedro passed Ekholdt beautiful trough. Super sub Eirik Ekholdt
used his calm and sent Vaulen in a 3-1 lead! In the rest of the game Vaulen
had full control and cruised home three well deserved points.
Also in this
game there was much rotation with players coming out and, and it was easy
to loose the control. Eirik Ekholdt got about 20 minutes all together.
Husebø was on twice, but surely had not more than a minute in total...
Else Bredesen got about 5. minutes.

-Everyone
wants to get us now
09.05.02: Assistant
manager Svein Øksnevad was pleased to see Vaulen win away again
on Wednesday evening. "I would like to congratulate all of the players
for their three points against Tasta. It was excellent," Svein told on
the sites guestbook.
While teams
like Tasta takes to simple metods when the ball isn't running their way,
Vaulen always want to entertain with good football with. "It was nice to
see that Tasta didn't managed to get something with their 'Wimbledon' style.
You got to search for a while to find so many long balls and bad tackles,"
said the Leeds United fan.
"We were, as Tore
told before we kicked off, pasionated something we showed by coming back
after the shock start. Marvellous!"
Svein now
think that all of the teams will be doing all they can to take the league
leaders. On Tuesday Vaulen will meet Ulf Sandnes in a six pointer in the
top of the table.
"Now we must
manage to hold our consentration further. There will be more and more teams
that will take Vaulen 'serious' now, and that wants to take the league
leaders. I hope the players keep up their spirit, and I'm already looking
forward to next game," said Svein that turns 40 in September.
Vaulen
B got the blues
11.05.02: Vaulen
B 2 - 5 Suldal Vaulen B took
an early lead on Friday evening, but after lack of consentration in Vaulen's
defense it was Suldal that took home a 5-2 win in the end. Goalscorers
for Vaulen were Eirik Ekholdt and Christian Titlestad (pictured). Without
the mistakes Vaulen played an equal game, but tired players meant many
changes in and out such that it was hard to find each others on Hinna grus
this evening.
Anyhow the
night was spent on the the barbeque evening at the club house, meaning
that the mood for next game away to Figgjo B on 18. May should be in order.
Ulf preview
12.05.02:
Vaulen
will meet Ulf Sandnes on Tuesday in a six pointer between number one and
two on the table. Manager Tore Haugvaldstad hope the run continues, but
Vaulen haven't changed their goal that is to establish themselves in the
division. "We have got an terrific start of the season, but we don't aim
higher than around the middle of the table," said Tore Haugvaldstad. Much
of the secret behind Vaulen's success this season have been their great
defense in front of a talented goalie. The stat tell that they so far only
have let in one goal.

While they have
scored 8, of them 75% in the second half. Previous points have been brought
home after technical play, but they can also show muscles when needed.
Versus Tasta reports told that they showed a good physic and stayer ability
and won on that.
Ulf
Sandnes was founded in 1911 and was rated amongst the best teams in Norway
in the late 30's, as they were playing in Norgesserien. Since then they
have been the best club in Sandnes and brought forward players as Gunnar
Aase and Bjørn Berland. Then in 1997 they was replaced by Sandnes
FK in the division system. Sandnes FK was a connection between all the
clubs in Sandnes. They eyed 1. division football in their town, but it
shouldn't be that easy. This meant that Ulf had to start again, and after
a break they joined the 6. division in 1998. In 2001 they was back in the
3.rd division, and this season Ulf and Sandnes FK play at the same division
level. Ulf have established themselves in the 3. division now and they
are likely to fight for promotion this season.

have managed to compose a good team this season as they at the moment are
number two on the table. Last season Vaulen won 5-2 at home, after Inge
Martin Hinna netted twice in addition to goals from Alexander Landsnes,
Anders Idsø and an own goal. In the away meeting it ended 0-0, with
second half substitute Sverre Møllegaard coming closest hitting
the post.
Vaulen league

Injury
woe for Vaulen
14.05.02:
In front of the game against Ulf-Sandnes tonight, Vaulen struggle with
some injury problems. Jan Egil Salvesen (pictured) feels a minor stretch
at the frontside of his thigh, also Stein Ivar Andersen have the same problem.
Of Salvi and Steini it's most likely that Salvi will get ready. Else will
midfielder Jarle Eike remain out with his knee ligament injury. According
to the physio Eike will need between two and five weeks to recover.
Jone Holgersen
have been added to the squad tomorrow. After he have completed his building
project at Kvitsøy, he will now join the team for full.
Meanwhile have
Tasta's Kim Henriksen been training with Vaulen lately. The midfielder
that is a 1978-model have a past from Vidar FK's youth set up.
OddsAlive
name Vaulen as their favourites, it's TIPS that writes this today. The
betting and football paper asked the Internet bookmakers to name their
favourite in each of the 24 groups in the 3. division, and OddsAlive had
no doubt in their mind when they named Vaulen as favourites in group 13.
Meanwhile
is the game against Ulf on Oddsen this week, and Vaulen is favorites at
Norsk Tipping at Hamar. Vaulen - Ulf-Sandnes 1,50 - 3,60 - 3,25. TIPS think
it's an open game on the paper, and that they don't want to put much money
on the game. Anyhow they think it should be a home win to Vaulen. Rogalands
Avis is more clear in their opinion. "A top game in group 13 in the 3.
division. Vaulen is leading the table after three straight wins, and despite
Ulf have taken home two of three games we think the home team will manage
to do it once more," writes Oskar Holter in Rogalands Avis and put the
bet in his 'double of the day'.

FIRST
HALF Both of the
teams struggled in the start to get control over the ball. The play really
didn't established itself before after about a half hour. And with the
help from Vaulen Beachboys (Vaulen's supporter club) the young players
managed to put pressure on the more expirenced Ulf players.
Well lead
by plumber Erik Gysland, Vaulen manage to get a grip on the game. But still
it was Ulf that should get the opener after a corner. After a fine combination
by Ulf's two lighthouse's, Kjetil Gilje and Trond Hoel.

SECOND HALF Second half
started similar to the first, but then Vaulen's run ability should be to
hard to handle for the away team. After a massive pressure, with amongst
others several dousin of corners, the deserved equalizer came. Jan Tore
Kleiberg was awake on a rebound from the keeper and made it 1-1. Unfortunately
Vaulen didn't managed to get the win in the end, as it was to be with the
singel goal, but the players gained a moral boost as they still are unbeaten.
The traveling Sandnes cuckoo's, with the Nygaard family in the lead seemd
very pleased with that.
Todays one-liner
came from Vaulen's Jarle Eike. The midfielder maestro that currently is
injured commented all the Vaulen goal chances. "They must smell them."

and Stein Ivar Andersen was injured last time, but they will perhaps reach
this game. Meanwhile will Jarle Eike try again on Wednesday or Thursday,
he will hope to reach the Grannekam game at Friday.
After
the Reserves won 5-1 away to Figgjo 2 on Saturday some of the players from
that game should also be in contention now. Goals from Eirik Ekholdt (3),
Jone Halvorsen and Christian Lie made it easy for Vaulen. Beachboys also
had a comeback from Morten Sivertsen, the playmaker did very well according
to himself and it's understood that he now expect a call from Tore Haugvaldstad...
Also a former Junior star have made comeback amongst the Reserves, Stian
Opsal, that scored 19 goals in the 1996 season will surely add an extra
dimension up front for the Reserves when he get match fit again.
Buøy
have done well at home this season and have two wins, first 7-1 to Tasta
and last time they won 4-2 at home to Grannekam a match Vaulen's assistant
boss Svein Øksnevad was watching at "Humpen". However their away
record is hopeless, first they loosed 0-7 to Vedavåg then 2-5 away
to Ulf.

Buøy have
an even squad, it's not many seasons ago since they was in the 5. division,
now are their Reserve team at that level! Gaute Johannessen's Buøy
is characterized as a team with good moral, and his players never leaves
a football pitch without a fight. That was perhaps the reason why they
won the so-called winter league, Nærbø's vinterserie, this
season.
Vaulen
won battle at Buøy
21.05.02: Buøy
(0) 0 - 2 (0) Vaulen Buøy
had invited to a battle on Tuesday evening, with probably the highest grass
in the division system and a strong wind, everything was set for the Buøy's
not so very sophisticated way of football.
Vaulen missed
their midfielder/striker Jan Tore Kleiberg due to personal duties. With
Jarle Eike still out injured, Pedro Salgado was moved back in midfield.
While Eirik Ekholdt got the chance up front again. DJ that scored three
goals for the Reserves last time! Meanwhile was both Andersen and Salvesen
back again after missing last game with thigh injuries. Starting in a 4-4-2
formation the team elsewhere was as expected. On the bench was Jone Holgersen,
Ole Bjørn Bredesen and Kjetil Aasland.
FIRST
HALF Vaulen started
with the ball, as Buøy decided to change side and get the wind in
their back in the first half. With the wind Buøy should manage to
make some pressure. Their long passes was luckily not that dangerous, as
most of them seemed to be gone by the wind. In fact Vaulen created most
of Buøy chances, defensive mistakes lead into several chances and
nerve problems amongst the Vaulen fans. However Beachboys managed to get
away with it by having the fastest players.
There wasn't
many chances for Vaulen in the first half. A Idsø corner was well
met by strong Alexander Landsnes, but his header went over. Also Hinna
had a big chance in the middle of the half, he came trough but was pressed
to shot with his left foot. The ball slide off his foot and went well wide.
The last part of the first half was a nightmare by Vaulen that was lucky
to keep the goal clean. The distance between the defense and midfield became
to big as the players went tired on the soft surface. The management duo
decided to fall back 10 meters only to try and keep it to half time.

But as Buøy
was going forward, Hinna got more room to run in. Inges, that was very
good today, won an equal fight inside the box. Being the strongest he won
the duel and was free with the Buøy 'keeper. But the referee was
a coward, and blew for the defending team despite Buøy's defender
pulled and pushed with his hands just as much as the Vaulen player.
SECOND HALF With the wind
in the back Vaulen managed to push more forward in the second half. At
one of many free kicks in the game Anders Idsø loaded from 25 meters
at the left side of goal. His good shot towards the nearest top corner
just shaved the bar. After about an hour Erik Hildén picked up a
yellow card for a late challenge. Hildén's second booking for the
season.
Striker Eirik
Ekholdt was changed with Kjetil Aasland, with about 25. minutes to go.
The big defender got the chance up front, being big and strong he should
change the game for Vaulen. He started very well. As he almost picked up
a rebound on a shot on his first involvement in the game. On the following
corner from the right, Aasland showed his strength heading it home
on the second post! Buøy had their greatest chance on a thunder
shot that went in the bar and down on the line. Luckily for Vaulen the
referee blew for offside on the rebound, as three Buøy players was
ready to put it in. We all praised the referee's way of looking at the
things then. Buøy was pressing forward after the goal, but Tommen
was very steady in goal despite the strong wind.
Buøy's
players was picking up several yellow cards through the game, but it should
had been even more. With a quarter to go Buøy was down to 10 men
after one of their strikers pick up his second for the day after kicking
the ball away after a offside decision.
With 10 minutes
to go Vaulen have a free kick from the middle of the pitch. Jan Egil
Salvesen steps up, but the long pass goes straight against the keeper.
However the keeper miss to collect the ball and the 45 meters shot goes
straight into the net!
We all though
it was 3-0 when the Buøy goalie gave away a rebound on a Vaulen
shot, Aasland snapped the ball and rounded the goalie, but the referee
once again blew for offside on the player picking up the rebound. Eirik
Ekholdt got the five last minutes as well for Alexander Landsnes that struggled
with a cramp.
So 2-0 it
was to be, flowers must go to all the players and management, winning away
at Buøy is seemed on as a very hard task. Also credit to Vaulen's
traveling supporters! According to the speaker it were 205 people in the
crowd, of them was at least a third supporting Vaulen.
PS:
Pedro Salgado had the moment of the game with a fantastic "back-heel-to-myself-trick",
by coincidence "El Matador" did it just in front of all the Beachboys fans.
Thank you.
Haugvalstad
praise players
22.05.02:
Vaulen boss Tore Haugvaldstad was very pleased on Tuesday after his team
had won 2-0 away to Buøy. This season have Vaulen conceded goals
only per 225. minute against every 32. minute last season. "It was strong
to keep the goal clean once again," praised Haugvaldstad in Stavanger Aftenblad.
"We have now only let in two goals in our five first games."
Vaulen combines
different skills well, meanwhile as the group of players enjoy themselves
both on and off the pitch. "It's without doubt the good mixture of player
types that is the main reason behind the good start," said Haugvaldstad.

preview
22.05.02:
Looking back at the win yesterday Vaulen assistant Svein Øksnevad
was very pleased to see Aasland get in the opener. "It was a great team
effort. Extra nice it was to see Aasland get in there showing the old striker
in him!"
On Friday
Vaulen will meet Grannekam at home. The game will be top against bottom,
but Øksnevad warns on taking to easy on Grannekam. "I see some are
announcing the game on Friday as easy, top against bottom etc., but we
should be aware. I have seen Grannekam myself and they are not that bad
that we can enjoy ourselves to a win. I don't think we can do that against
any team in this group."
"Still I look
down on the table, and I think that can be healthy to do. Now we will have
two good training sessions, I already look forward to Friday," admitted
Øksi.
Looking at the
support Vaulen got on Buøy, Øksnevad will now hope for a
record crowd for the season on Friday. "We must hope that there will come
at least that many Beachboys fans as yesterday. That was fantastic," enthused
Svein. Looking at the team will Vaulen miss their central defender Erik
Gysland due to personal duties.
Grannekam
is a relatively new club it was founded in 1991, when it was fusion by
two clubs - Vindafjord and Ølen. Since then they have been between
the third and fourth division. This season have Grannekam only got one
point, but they have lost many equal games. Harry Skulerud's team is young
and technically, but miss the strength therefor they have often conceded
goals on free kicks and corners this season. Vaulen will perhaps not have
such a big advantage of the astro turf versus Grannekam, as they play on
a similar surface through the whole winter.
Meanwhile isn't
it only Vaulen's first team that top the table. Vaulen Beachboys website
have been rated as number one amongst all the sites in the division group

Gran finale
25.05.02: Vaulen
(1) 3 - 2 (0) Grannekam The rain started
to fall down only minutes before kick off this Friday night as Vaulen said
welcome to Grannekam. This was top against bottom on the paper, but should
be an equal affair. Vaulen boss Tore Haugvaldstad had made two changes
since last time. Kjetil Aasland replaced Gysland that had valid absence.
While Kleiberg was back again, meaning that Ekholdt was forced to sit on
the imaginary bench. On the bench was Bjarne Hov, Bjørn Helge Husebø,
Ole Bjørn Bredesen, Eirik Ekholdt and the brave and tricky Gitle
Martell Aarre...
FIRST
HALF Vaulen took
an early lead after 12. minutes. A Salgado shot from the edge of the box
was saved by Grannekam's goalie, Olav Anders Helgevold, with his right
foot, but Jan Tore Kleiberg was awake on the rebound and fired it
home!
It was perhaps
a too easy start as Vaulen lost their initiative, the play soon became
as grey as the weather. Meanwhile the rain started to pour down. The rain
gave associations and the crowd started to talk about fishing a while.
Then Pedro Salgado should get two big chances. First was he played through
in the right channel, he advanced past defenders and the goalie, but he
was blocked just in front of the goal to a corner. Not much longer afterwards
he took a high cross on the volley from 8-10 meters but the shot hitted
the bar and went over! Then it went a bit quiet again, but Grannekam got
a sort of disease as several of them picked up knocks. Probably not a fishy
tactic, but the tempo of the game was at least slowing down.

But Grannekam
was not a bad team, they had two very fast forwards that gave Vaulen trouble
on counter attacks. Their most dangerous chance in the first half came
down their left side, he was left alone with no marking and run down the
flank. He passed to the striker in the middle that managed to come alone
with Tom Arne Bø Pedersen in the goal. But the Grannekam striker
sent away a so-called "fourth-division-shot" straight into Tommen's hands.
SECOND
HALF A tactical
change was made at half time as Pedro Salgado was moved up as striker and
Jan Tore Kleiberg went down in midfield. Kleiby took Anders Idsø's
defensive role, while Idsø got the offensive role. With the move
Vaulen tried to get more runs through the compact Grannekam defense, meanwhile
as the manager dup hoped for more defensive control in the middle. However
the move meant that Vaulen lost a big man in Kleiberg to keep the ball
up front.

This meant that
Beachboys lost more their pressure and Grannekam started the second half
in the best manner.
After 55.
minutes Vaulen made their first substitution with Eirik Ekholdt coming
in for Hinna that had picked up a minor knock only minutes before. Grannekam
got a deserved equalizer after 57. minutes. A cross from the right found
Kjetil
Bjørgen unmarked on the first post, heheaded it past
Bø Pedersen that had no chance to save. Vaulen had been very uninspired
at the start of the half, but after the equalizer they luckily managed
to put in a another gear. Vaulen therefor took back the lead only three
minutes later with Anders Idsø. Then after 71. minutes Pedro
Salgado finally got his goal. However came all of Vaulen's goals after
poor defending. With a quarter to go Grannekam reduced the lead on a penalty
from Erik Reistad.

But
Vaulen should manage to get home three new points. "Today was it only the
points that was warming," said Tore Haugvaldstad after the game. Vaulen
that now have gone eight 3. division games in a row unbeaten including
end of last season will now try to continue their run at home to number
five on the table, Åkra. This game will be played on next Saturday
at 15.00.

Brilliant
start for 7-a-side
29.05.02:
While the first team is amongst the best local sides in Rogaland, Vaulen
C top their local seven-a-side division together with Morten Abel's Leedalkameratene.
After four games are Vaulen unbeaten, however the level seems to have raised
this season and Vaulen can't take easy on any of the teams in the group.
It all started at home to Muskel where Vaulen became too strong for the
side that won the KM Championship last season. Vaulen didn't stopped before
it was 7-1 after goals from Arnfinn Kleven (3), Pål Særvoll,
Jone Olsen, Fredrik Eriksen and Jostein Jensen. Next up for Frode Lima's
men was away to ambitious Storhaug 2. Despite they used players that was
aiming for 4. division play, they failed to handle with the well trained
Vaulen players. Vaulen finally won 7-4 after goals from Jostein Jensen,
Kjetil Stensland, Frode Lima, Jone Bø, Espen Særvoll, Arnfinn
Kleven and Pål Særvoll. On Tuesday 14. May should the team
get their hardest challenges so far, against a KFUM 2 side with former
Bryne and Viking ace Colin Pritchard Davies in the team.
Beachboys finally
won 4-2 after goals from Kjetil Stensland, Pål Særvoll, Jone
Olsen and Stian Lima. Yesterday they took home their fourth win in a row
with a 7-1 win at home to Øyane. Vaulen's goals was scored by Espen
Særvoll
(2), Jostein Jensen (2), Øystein Winsnes, Stian Lima and Arnfinn
Kleven. You can read all the results from Vaulen C's division

Vaulen will miss Anders Idsø in their next game against Åkra
as he is traveling to Bergen for a wedding. Though will another midfielder
return in Jarle Eike that now is back from a knee injury. The Beachboys
skipper have missed the last four games, but is likely to take Idsø's
defensive midfielder role on Saturday. Also Erik Gysland will be back again
after he was in a family meeting in Vrådal last weekend. New on the
injury list will be forward Ole Bjørn Bredesen that picked up a
foot injury during the weekend.

Meanwhile have
Vaulen boss Tore Haugvalstad allowed some of his players to play for Vaulen
2 on Thursday. Both Bjørn Helge Husebø and Bjarne Hov are
likely to start against top team Dirdal on Thursday. The game starts 19.00
at Hinna grus.
Åkra
are known as an attacking side, but their 3-5-2 formation also gives goals
in the wrong direction. Last season Åkra's player manager Knut Boge
surprised with his team, after they promoted the season before. Players
to look out for is their star striker Rune Warholm and goalie Ståle
Oldeide. Last season Rune scored 27 goals, while he this season have netted
7 goals in three games! Oldeide, that is a veteran with a past in Bryne
and Lyn, missed last game against Buøy (4-3), after he was sent
off in their 1-6 defeat to Ulf, on a game scouts from Vaulen was observed.
Åkra's results this season have been all right, together with Vaulen
are they the only team that have managed to beat Torvastad this season.

31.05.02:Vaulen
B - Dirdal (1) 1 - 1 (1) Vaulen B met
top team Dirdal on Hinna grus at Thursday. With Bjarne Hov and Jone Holgersen
back should Vaulen dominate the game. Reports also tell that Marius Veseth
did his comeback for Vaulen. VZ that have struggled with a knee ligament
problem in the last three years after his first operation was unsuccessful.
Marius have also been studying in Bergen, but will now at least play some
games in the summer. The first half started a bit careful from both teams.
The first 20 minutes were dominated by clearances and long and high passes.
But after numerous of chances should Vaulen's Eirik Ekholdt managed
to break himself through the defense after 35. minutes. With a sensitive
lob he managed to outwit Dirdal's very good keeper Martin Espedal. Ekholdt
got the chance again two minutes later, but for an open goal from five
meters he hit the post. Luckily for Ekholdt the referee wrongly said it
was offside.
With five minutes
to half time, Øystein Winstnes was near to be the scapegoat. With
his ponytail he almost headed the ball into his own net, but a tiger leap
from Bjarne Hov avoided the equalizer. But after 43. minutes Dirdal got
a fantastic hit, from 25 meters Ole Gilje fired it into the goal
and past an outplayed Hov in the Vaulen goal.
The second
half started with play against one goal. Vaulen's two central midfielders,
Jone Holgersen and Sverre Møllegaard, steered the midfield completely.
With some brilliant breakthrough passes they gave Ekholdt many chances.
But Dirdal's good veteran goalie with nearly 600 appearances for his club
avoided Vaulen from taking back the lead. With a quarter to go came perhaps
the best save at Hinna grus through all time. Head specialist Eirik Ekholdt
met a corner perfect on the first post. Everyone was expecting the goal,
but Espeland managed to reach the top corner and hit it to corner. Vaulen
had several chances in the end, and came closest when Morten Sivertsen
was pulled down in the box by the goalie. But the referee only waved on.
It was therefor to be 1-1, a result Dirdal must be most pleased with. After
all it gets though and close when two top teams meet.
