English term or phrase: showcase
Hi all,

I've been racking my brain for a good translation of the word 'showcase' as in GO USA Hockey Showcase (please see excerpt below).

I considered 'presentatiedag', or maybe even 'open dag', but somehow it just doesn't fit the bill nicely... anyone any suggestions? Thank you for your help!


Go USA Field Hockey Showcases 2014

UStudy will also host the annual Go USA Hockey Showcase in May 2014. Due to popular demand, this time there are two events being held - at Kampong Hockey Club on Thursday, May 29 and at Braxgata Hockey Club on Friday, May 30. Coaches from top American colleges scout for talent at the event, during which participants are given US-level training by coach Daan Polders at the clinics held throughout the day. All participants of the 2012 Field Hockey Showcase have been placed at American colleges, and those of 2013 are in talks with several schools. Only 25 players can be accommodated at each showcase, so register NOW.

neutral  freekfluweel: Ach het is afwasmiddelen kennelijk niet ongewoon onzinnige bewoordingen te gebruiken... zo schijnt één onderdeel van de afleiding `De Toekomst` te heten....

agree  Barend van Zadelhoff: Talentendag (Robert van der Horst): http://tinyurl.com/llne4z7. Ik denk dat dit wel okay is. Het blijft ook wat dichter bij de betekenis van showcase: a situation or event that is designed to show the good qualities of a person... Zie ook disc. entry.
