"Go Cutters!"

The Diamond Cutters fans are, without doubt, the loudest fans in the MBAMNMSDC. Night in, night out, they are consistently rooting on their favourite team, with a die-hard attitudinal approach. Even away from home sweet home, there is always a strong and loyal contingent of Cutters fans, prepared to do anything to spur on their heroes, and make sure they head into the game with an important leading edge over their competitors. Says PG Schumann, 'the crowd really help us rise to the occasion and I thank them greatly for that." Yoch echoes his sentiments, adding "the main and overwhelming reason I play is for the kids. I know they're here to have some fun and to look up to someone, and I try to give them that. I play a fun style of game, and I'm hoping I can be a great example to these kids, in a game becoming ever more tarnished by the business side of sport. I'm glad we have such a fan base, and all I can say is when they're here I'd hate to be the other team."

The fans are happy to give their unrelenting support also, and honorary member John Delany is one of those. "Once I was so caught up in the moment and the atmosphere, I almost cheered myself. They're a great team and bliss to watch. Go Yochem!" One fan not afraid to audibly spur on and hurrah the Cutters whenever she can is the infections and breezy Dutch compatriot Alexa Day. "I love this team, especially my main man Yochem. I know you wouldn't believe me when I tell you this, but I am actually related to him. I'm betting he'll be MVP this year and carry the team to the finals."

The noise was actually recorded during a game last season, at 50dB SPL, proof of the claim that the Cutters have the loudest fans in the MBAMNMSDC. Whether they can take full advantage of this and turn it into wins, is something they will have to work harder on if they wish to achieve great things in the post season this year.
