We mark off the last days on the calendar. Always a good time to look back on the year that has almost passed. Which videos, stories and events from NH Sport were so beautiful, special or fun in 2023 that we want to highlight them one more time? Today we are at fifth grader De Kennemers in Beverwijk, which is trained by Mister Telstar Fred Bischot.
Because the report shows that not everyone is aware of the name Fred Bischot, we will write it down here just to be sure: Bischot played with Telstar in the Premier League in the 1970s and then made a trip to FC Amsterdam and Go Ahead Eagles before ending his career with the White Lions.
With around five hundred professional football matches under his belt, he certainly doesn’t feel too big for a spot on the pitch in the lower regions of amateur football. De Kennemeren finished in ninth place last season out of eleven teams in the fifth class A on Saturday. This season, the team of the now 75-year-old Bischot is still waiting for its first victory and occupies last place.
