‘'The last 15 years I have enjoyed working for Ajax, Red Bull Netherlands, the Olympic Games in London, the KNVB, sports marketing agency Players United and the Gymnastics Union. From 2014 to 2018, as a press officer I was part of the staff of the Dutch women's soccer team. A fantastic adventure, as the sport developed in a bizarre way within 3,5 years. The highlight of course was the European Championship in the summer of 2017. I think it's a fantastic challenge to enter a world in which the result on the field is leading. Where the tension is sometimes killing and egos displace each other. Finding the balance for an optimal result, for all parties, is my passion ánd my strength. '
"Pauline is good at managing people, she has excellent negotiating skills and she is great on solving problems and conflicts. She works in a structured and organized way that ensures that all parties are well- informed and that there is clarity about everyone's responsibilities." Hayley Roach, manager at London Organizing Comittee Olympic Games

'I love it to bring a project to a successful conclusion under pressure from several deadlines. This may vary from a (sports) event to a gala or party with all the aspects that come with it. I've already built up the necessary experience in the field of PR and communication. I started at a PR agency where I was responsible for Nike Netherlands and my last role as a PR and communication manager was at the foundation Spieren voor Spieren. So I've dealt with communication, PR and (event)marketing both commercially and within the world of charity. Managing and building relationships within the group of ambassadors of Spieren voor Spieren was also part of my activities. I've worked together with many (old) top athletes and coaches to realize the goals of Spieren voor Spieren. Naturally I've always taken into account the available time and possibilities of the athlete or coach and his or her involvement in the charity.'
"Lienke has a true top-class sport mentality! Lienke is energy and with that she works very purposefully and does so in a very enthusiastic and positive way. When working together she acts as a true team player and shows a sense of humor." Marjolein Bolhuis- Eijsvogel, former director of Spieren voor Spieren and former Olympic hockey champion
