November 17, 2019 - 8th tier - Náklo 0 Sigma Hodolany 3












November 17, 2019 - 8th tier - Olomoucký kraj
Náklo 0 Sigma Hodolany 3
Attendance - 170

The last football match for me, until the winter break, came last weekend in Náklo.  The village has a population of around 1,500 and it is located not too far from Olomouc.  It is a popular destination for swimmers, because of a local pond.

The visitors last Sunday were from Hodolany.  They usually get 250-450 fans a match, which is unheard of in the Czech 8th tier.  The fans are active as well, chanting and singing throughout matches.  Around 70 supporters were at the match in Náklo.

November 2, 2019 - 7th tier - Velká Bystřice 0 Haná Prostějov 2





November 2, 2019 - Olomoucký Kraj - 7th tier
Velká Bystřice 0 Haná Prostějov 2
Attendance - 60

This was my second trip to Velká Bystřice, as my first was around 10 years ago.  Velká Bystřice is located not far from Olomouc, so I decided to talk around 8km instead of taking the train.  The town is more known, at least locally, for handball.  The ground is rather non-descript, and nothing too interesting about it.  Haná played a smart away match, and kept the hosts from having any real scoring opportunities.  This was the last match for both clubs until the end of March 2020 when the season restarts after the winter break.
