I would like to pass on my passion for sports to my favorite target group, children. I think it is important that children can be themselves and above all have a lot of fun at Sport BSO Fun and Friends.

In my youth I played tennis on a national level. This experience has given me the insight that sport has much more to offer than just physical progression, as well as increasing self-confidence, dealing with winning and losing in sports. All kinds of aspects that you also encounter in ‘real life’. I graduated in ‘physical education’ and ‘sports management.’ My work experience is varied, I teach gym class at a primary school and organize extracurricular activities.

I former worked in sales at a sports brand. My wish to combine my experience and passion for children and sports has come true with Sport BSO Fun and Friends. Through the sport BSO I can contribute to and activate a lifelong exercise. I recently followed a training where the ‘Athletic Skills Model’ is used as a model to allow children and adults to exercise in a versatile way. I am very enthusiastic about the impact of versatile movement on physical development and the fun children have with this. Versatile exercise is central to Sport BSO Fun and Friends.

Mission

We do this in a sporty environment where fun is central. At Sport BSO Fun and Friends your child will be introduced to a wide variety of sports and games. Your child is central to us, we take your child’s needs into account. If you wish, we can provide support in finding a sport that suits your child.
