Hans-Jurgen Striek
Private trainer / Coach
Hans-Jurgen got to know Niels in 2018. And he was immediately enthusiastic about Niels. So after a first meeting - a group training session in Zevenaar - Hans-Jurgen and Niels decided to work together, and since then they have been almost inseparable. Their bond is strong as titanium.
Hans-Jurgen: "Niels is a disarming, social young man with an abundance of energy and infectious enthusiasm. His eagerness to learn and drive are admirable, and he stands out for his attacking style of play and fearlessness on the tennis court. His emotion and expression always make his game captivating."
The teacher hopes Niels will continue to be an inspiration to children in similar situations in the future, encouraging them to play sports and tennis. Hans-Jurgen continues to enjoy their cooperation and is proud of Niels' progress both on and off the court.
Bart van Schijndel
Management
With his company Sport Stories, Bart van Schijndel coaches a select team of top athletes. And he creates an environment for them where they can focus on their sporting performance to the fullest.
Niels fits that bill perfectly. "Niels is a young, positive and energetic champion with passion for his sport who is only at the beginning of his career. Together we are developing Niels' brand and looking at commercial partnership opportunities with an eye to the future."
Bart speaks the language of both the locker room and the boardroom. As a sports marketing expert, he knows better than anyone what sports in general and sports heroes in particular mean to our society. "Sport is emotion; every day success and adversity and joy and sorrow go hand in hand. Metaphorical for our lives, also in the workplace."
