Sjeng Schalken: 'Sports sharpen your character'
Sjeng Schalken is a former Dutch professional tennis player. Schalken joined the professional circuit in 1994. From 1996 to 2006, he was a member of the Dutch Davis Cup team and was ranked eleventh in the ATP world rankings on April 21, 2003, his highest ranking ever.
I think the Youth Fund is the best fund there is. Children from families with limited financial resources are particularly vulnerable. You see them becoming socially isolated more quickly. The Youth Sports Fund makes it possible for them to enjoy sports at the club they enjoy. That makes them more resilient and stronger!
