Paul Jans
Paul Jans (born 5 August 1981) is a Dutch former professional footballer who played as a striker. Career Born in Veghel and raised in Keldonk, Jans started playing football at RKVV Keldonk, where his goal-scoring ability stood out from a young age. At 11, he moved to Sparta '25 in Beek en Donk, where his performances earned him attention from professional club VVV-Venlo. Jans joined VVV at 14, but his progress was hindered by injuries, including a broken wrist and a serious ankle injury that kept him sidelined for over a year. Despite these setbacks, Jans regained his form and played in multiple positions, including forward, midfielder, and centre-back, helping to improve his versatility. In October 2000, Jans made his first-team debut for VVV, replacing Maurice Graef in a 1–0 home win against Eindhoven, and by the following season, he was a regular starter. However, he struggled to maintain a consistent spot in the starting lineup, with the club frequently seeking alternat ...

Derde Divisie Players
The ''derde'' (derda, derdai, dardai) is the title held by the highest religious and political authority among the Toubou Teda of the resident in Tibesti, in north-western Chad. He is elected among the three most prominent families of the Tomagra clan, and at the death of the ''derde'' the title never passes to the son of the deceased, but to a member of the other two families. The ''derde'' exercises judicial and executive power, arbitrating conflict and levying sanctions based on a code of compensations. He is assisted in the exercise of his role by a council of nobles. It appears that already in the 12th century the ''derde'' of the Tomaghra of Bornu had already established its preeminence over much of the Tibesti, through the lines of succession still valid today. The Teda of the Tibesti in the 17th and 18th centuries distinguished themselves for their raids from the Fezzan to the north and to Borno to the south.
