Someone calling himself "Jerrydon" has again uploaded a picture of some scene at a ball field, and this time added the comment "foto van een oefenwedstrijd van NEC". I cannot identify the game, and it's not used on any of the pedias, so I'm deleting it again. What does the comment mean?

I seem to remember "oefenen" in Dutch means something like to practice for better results (ie to do exercices repeatedly such as in sport and music maybe)
foto van een is obviously "photography from a"
wedstrijd is a sport competition, a sport event, a meeting
as for NEC, check out http://www.nec-nijmegen.nl/
looks like football to me :-)
so I would say it's a picture taken during practice of that team...

Dutch oefenwedstrijd = German Übungswettkampf = English practicing game, you meet another team outside of the series, so the result doesn't really count. NEC is the premier league soccer club in Nijmegen (Nijmegen Eendracht Combinatie), http://www.nec-nijmegen.nl/
The title reads "photo from one of NEC's practice games".
The Dutch Wikipedia has 26 pages that mention wedstrijd (game), but none that says oefenwedstrijd. There are 18 pages on voetbal (soccer), but none yet on Nijmegen or NEC. Soccer is big in the Netherlands.
