Justin den Hollander came to HKC from the A1 of PKC five years ago. After a spell in the third team, he worked his way back into the squad, after which he made his debut in the Korfbal League. The club names promotion to the Korfbal League under Peter Kamsteeg and Marrien Ekelmans as his sporting highlight.
HKC writes that the decision was not taken lightly and weighs extra heavily for someone who has committed himself to the club with so much dedication and involvement. According to the club, he has made it known that he is disappointed with the way his time at HKC is ending: after five years of full commitment, he had imagined a more personal farewell. The club says it understands and respects that disappointment, and is grateful to him for what he has meant to the club on and off the court.
"I was looking for a club where everyone knows each other, where you fight for the result together and where the real club feeling is central", he says, looking back on his choice for HKC. He concludes with: "Despite that disappointment, I sincerely hope that HKC remains the warm club that I deliberately chose back then. Because it is precisely the people who make this club so special."
