The Springer committee is responsible for sports and games within W.S.V. Desda. For each activity, a few members of the committee take care of the organization. Often, there is a prize for the winner and the runner-up receives the honor of a mention in the club magazine. Examples of activities organized by Springer include: Escape Huygens, the pool tournament, the variety show, bowling, and of course the famous Pancake Eating and Running Festival.
The name Springer comes from the mathematician Springer, just as Brouwer and Bartjens were also mathematicians. The logo used to consist of a series of dice with the letters SPRINGER on them, connected by a wire with an ignition mechanism on the end. When choosing the name, a Dutch mathematician was the starting point and “Springer” felt sporty (just like how Brouwer was an applicable name).
