Top-level sports associations and training locations

Top-level sports associations and training locations
Den Haag Topsport supports premier league sport associations in preparing coaching and development policies for youth training and talent coaching. Den Haag Topsport also provides support or mediation in all aspects relevant to organizational professionalism, sports-related medical affairs, transportation issues (e.g. participation in national or international tournaments or competitions), recruiting sponsors, accommodation matters and promotional activities or events. To qualify for support from Den Haag Topsport, the club or association must satisfy a number of criteria, which are assessed by way of a ‘quick scan’. The scan provides an impression of the top sport profile of the organization and maps the strengths and weaknesses and any specific needs within the club or association.

Support for regional and national training centres is additionally available via the Regio Steunpunt Talent en Topsport. This may cover issues such as harmonizing education and top-level sports training (adapted timetables, training on site on the school grounds, transport from the training site to school and vice versa, etc.), mediation in finding housing in The Hague for top talent, and organizing workshops and customized clinics (information on nutrition, substances use, mental training, recruiting sponsorships, etc.).
