ICE HIKE RANKING & RIFUGIO HALL OF FAME
Non-Dutchies are very welcome! There's always someone to explain the rules in English. So please feel free to join. During an Ice Hike Tournament everyone will get the chance to play one game (+/- 45 min) and then the winners (and sometimes the runners up) of different tables will play a final. At the Rifugio Dutch National Championship at Spellenspektakel (8 nov 2026, Jaarbeurs Utrecht) everyone gets to play 2 qualifying games (+/-20 minutes/ game). And then the best 2, 4, or 8 (depending on the number of participants) play the finals.
Note: The Rifugio Dutch National Championship at Spellenspektakel in november is the only moment to get listed in the RIFUGIO HALL OF FAME. Cause only the winners of an official tournament and the top 3 of the Dutch National Championship get listed here.
Last year also 5 Rifugio-minitournaments were held: the 30th of april at Mox Spellen in Heerhugowaard (winner Jessica Hofman), the 18th of may at Koning Willem in Deventer (winner Daniël van Klaveren) , the 14th of june at Oosterspel in Nijmegen (winner Ward de Ridder), the 25th of juli at Bumblebeez in Bergen op Zoom (winner Mark vd Broek) and the 13th of september at The Joker in Utrecht (winner: Juan Salas).
