cross-ING is actively involved in supporting young athletes. As part of our handball sponsorship programme, we spoke to Jacqueline about her motivation, the influence of cross-ING on her sporting career and the importance of sport in her life.
What motivates you to play handball regularly alongside your professional and private life, and what does the sport mean to you personally?
Jacqueline tells us that handball is much more than just physical activity for her. It's the fascination for the dynamic and intense sport that offers her the perfect balance to her everyday life. She particularly appreciates the team spirit and friendships that have developed at the club over the years. ‘After more than 20 years in the same club, some deep friendships have developed,’ says Jacqueline. Sport has not only brought her physical fitness, but also close social ties that enrich her life.
How does the support from cross-ING help you to achieve your sporting goals and maintain your enthusiasm for the sport?
‘Sponsors are essential for our club,’ explains Jacqueline. Thanks to cross-ING's support through player sponsorship, the club is able to do a lot, which has a positive effect on the entire club structure and the motivation of the players. ‘We have a great club structure and this crowns all of our enthusiasm for this attractive sport.’ Jacqueline emphasises that many projects and events would not be possible without this support. The collaboration with sponsors such as cross-ING contributes to the stability and success of the club.
What advice would you give to others who want to develop a passion for sport alongside their job?
Jacqueline encourages others to just get started. ‘Just do it!’ she says enthusiastically. In her opinion, it is extremely important to have a hobby that inspires passion alongside your everyday work. ‘It helps you switch off and develop personally.’ For her, there is nothing better than finding an activity that brings you joy and fulfilment. Whether it's sport or another hobby, it's about finding something that enriches your life.
Thanks to the support of cross-ING, we can see how work and sport can be successfully combined. Jacqueline masters this balancing act and pursues both her sporting and professional goals with passion. Thank you, Jacqueline, for giving us an insight into your experiences - we wish you continued success!
