Hi Bas. What do you see as your main focus in your job in Hørsholm Svømmeforening?
“As a main focus I will see “how to make a small club bigger” in all aspects. Especially trying to make the (young) age groups swimmers good juniors, and from there good (young) seniors!”
How will you start handling your new job?
“I will start like in the last 43 (sick!) years, with a lot of the same illusion like always and try to work in all aspects of the club: Global training programs for all the training groups in the club, and specific training programs for all swimmers in the first team. Trying to motivate the whole technical staff the best way I can and help the board the best way I can.”
What are you most excited about in your new job?
“Everything (still) looks very exciting to me. But to work again as my own boss in a small but very diligent club after having a great experience working with, first of all Paulus, and later with Shannon and Nick, looks very exciting to me. And I will start with it with the same energy and ambition.
I also like to say that I am absolutely not looking for an "easy job" but just something that fits in my ideas how to work in swimming after more than 40 years working as a swimming coach.”
NTC-træner Shannon Rollason er sikker på, at ansættelsen af Bas i Hørsholm Svømmeforening er meget positivt for klubben. Han udtaler:
“I think it is a very positive thing for Danish Swimming to have Bas staying in Denmark with his long experience in the sport, and his knowledge of swimming here over the past 2 years. I think it will be a very positive signing for the Hørsholm Svømmeforening, that will see them develop over the years to come.”
Vi på SvømmeSport ønsker Bas stort tillykke med sin nye stilling i Hørsholm.
