The empowerment of sports brought to you by Erben Wennemars.
'Without sports, I would not have gotten as far in society. In sports I was able to easily express myself. Sports made me the man I am today'
Erben Wennemars credits sports for his life’s success. A once shy kid, he found his confidence through sports and went on to become the world champion speed skater he is today. Sports broadened Erben’s outlook and gave him the means to express himself – an experience that he wants to share with others. The Dutch athlete and TV personality is now the ambassador of the charity ‘Jeugdfonds Sport & Cultuur’. As a part of No Reserve Day, Erben will guest curate the TeamNL auction, an initiative of Dutch Olympic Committee*Dutch Sports Federation (NOC*NSF). TeamNL is the sports team that represents the Netherlands 365 days a year at the highest international level. The auction features sports memorabilia from many well-known Dutch athletes. Proceeds from the auction will be used to support the Dutch charity, ‘Jeugdfonds Sport & Cultuur’ in their mission to make it possible for children from families with financial concerns to participate in sports and cultural activities.
