Tim Bottinga suspended by Aalsmeer
Aalsmeer handball player Tim Bottinga has been suspended by the club itself after a fight in the game against the Belgian Visé. The disciplinary committee has yet to rule on the incident. Bottinga watched today’s game from the stands. He didn’t want to respond to camera. Aalsmeer coach Bert Bouwer does. “This does not belong to Aalsmeer. Tim understands it all. This is a signal to the outside world that this does not belong to the club. Visé has not suspended his people and that says enough about the other party,” Bouwer said.
