But what if VZV’s results decline over the next three years? Or when the chemistry between coach and players has worn off? This scenario was also discussed in the conversations between VZV and Janssen. “I think we fit together. I have been the trainer here for three years now. But is that still possible for another three years? If it is no longer possible, I will step aside. Then I will give someone else space and I can become a club trainer, for example.”
“It is of course not without reason that I am signing for another three years. I would not have done a one-year contract,” said Janssen.
In addition, the success coach says that he has also spoken to clubs from abroad to see whether he was entitled to full-time employment somewhere across the border. Janssen: “In other countries there are sixty trainers competing for five places. There has been contact, but nothing has become concrete.”
Fight for the national title
VZV and Janssen are also doing well at the top of the Premier League this season and are almost certain to participate in the play-offs. The club occupies second place in the rankings with five games to go, three points behind leader Kwiek. On Saturday, VZV will receive fellow provincial HV Volendam in its own sports hall (7 p.m.).
