A sports club is mourning the deaths of two amateur sportsmen who suffered heart attacks on successive days, leaving team-mates wondering if the club is cursed. The club, VfL Edewecht, called off a regional league match out of respect. Then on Thursday, Arne Hobbie, 33, who played for and ran the club's basketball team, Edewecht Wattworms, also suffered a heart attack while training. Like the grieving footballers before them, the mourning basketball team also called off a key match, which would have decided promotion. The tiny town of Edewecht, which has a population of 21,000, is in shock.
