Former handball player Jeffrey Boomhouwer gave one last Saturday clinic in Aalsmeer. Several handball training sessions were scheduled for twelve children between the ages of twelve and sixteen in the De Bloemhof sports hall. The group also received mental training and tips about nutrition.
“I was a professional in Germany for 12 years. I know from my own youth that these types of training are very educational and cool. To hear from someone who has been somewhere where you want to be clinic to get,” says Boomhouwer.
“I thought it would be a lot of fun to participate and I didn’t want to spend the whole holiday at home either”
The second training of the day is given by Ricardo Clarijs, the assistant national coach of the Dutch women’s team.

He gives tips and tricks with enthusiasm. Clarijs knows better than anyone what it takes to reach the top. “You see the Oranje matches on TV. That’s very cool, but you don’t see that they train 300 days a year. There are also many tough aspects to being a professional and you have to realize that,” says Clarijs.
NH Sport was present in Aalsmeer on Saturday afternoon and spent the entire afternoon with Jeffrey Boomhouwer. That resulted in the video report above.
