Sponsor your own club

YTP 2010

Near the vicinity of Amsterdam and in the shadow of the Amsterdam Arena football stadium, is located the sports complex of sv. Ouderkerk, the football club of Ouderkerk aan de Amstel. On Tuesday, January 18, 2011 a management delegation of Your Test Professionals visited their the girls football team, E1, to provide them with printed rain jackets. The girls are wearing these jackets during training and away matches, thus the girls stand out proudly on the soccer pitch. Besides sponsoring a girls team with rain jackets Your Test Professionals has a billboard in a prominent place on the main pitch.

A part of our employment conditions contains the option of sponsoring a club of choice linked to Alpe d'HuZes after 3 years of service.
Alpe d’HuZes has been founded with the goal to convert the helplessness caused by cancer to strength. We do this by expanding the borders of what is possible with as much people as possible.
Alpe d’huzes vision is that the greatest possible satisfaction can be achieved by suffering with body and soul for someone else. With the motto “giving up is not an option” we accept no limitation of what we can and will achieve. Your Test Professionals hugely admires the dedication and motivation of this great initiative and embrace its motto “giving up is not an option”.
Opportunity knocks, thought Eric Klooster, father of two girls playing football (E-and D-pupil), to support and give ample exposure to the girls' football within the club. In this way Eric’s work and sports activities are being united. The sponsoring committee within the club is thrilled about this initiative and provides Your Test Professionals a sponsor spot on the main pitch. This means at a location, daily clearly visible, when players and parents go to the training grounds.
 
Eric is within the sv. Ouderkerk part of the coaching staff for boys and girls. He started as a youth counselor and has grown into a KNVB certified coach of pupils and junior teams.
 
Every week he is two evenings on the pitch training various teams and female goalkeepers in order to prepare them for the coming matches at the weekend. One evening a week, he follows training and courses at the KNVB to improve his training and coaching skills.
Wihin Your Test Professionals, Eric Klooster himself is a versatile senior consultant and specialized in testing of software and information systems.
