Salland Handball School
Salland Handball School and Reggeborgh Foundation join forces with a new three-year partnership. The aim: to support young handball talent in the Salland region and prepare them for the top. With this collaboration, the two organisations combine efforts to encourage both the sporting and personal growth of talented young people.
Investing in tomorrow's top athletes
When it comes to talent development, the Salland Handball School has a strong track record. Every year, the organisation helps dozens of young handball players on their way to a professional career. Among others, top international and Dutch national team player Dione Housheer trained here.
‘In addition to technical and tactical training, the Handball School also offers guidance on mental, social and physical levels, with the aim of preparing young people optimally for the challenges of elite sport.’

Knowledge sharing in sport
Reggeborgh Foundation is committed to more than just financial support in sport. Maaike Heethaar, director of Reggeborgh Foundation, says: ‘Drawing on our experience with our own speed skating and marathon skating team and by working with talented athletes and para-athletes, we are committed to sharing our knowledge to help talents move forward. Moreover, as a former handball player myself, I have experienced how important a good education is and how much you can learn from dedicated trainers and coaches. Even if you don't reach the absolute top, you will take away valuable lessons that can shape you for the rest of your life. With the Salland Handball School's innovative and challenging programme, supported by an international network and passionate technical staff, they help young talents develop to their full potential. We are proud to contribute to this.’
‘By joining forces with Reggeborgh Foundation, we’re not only investing in the future of handball, but also in even better coaching and programmes for these young athletes. We are obviously very happy about that.’
