Robbert Andringa, a member of the Polish team AZS Olsztyn, has been sidelined due to the injury of metatarsal bone after one jump during the training session. At the first sight, it didn’t look as a serious injury.
“Robbert will have to wear a leg plaster for the next six weeks, which means he won’t be able to compete at the World Championship. It’s a serious blow now only for him, but also for the whole team because he was an important player,” says the head coach of the Dutch national team Gido Vermeulen.
The Netherlands will play in Pool B, with Brazil, Canada, France, Egypt and China.
