sport">Russian Kosta Poltavets will act as coach of the duo, which is financially supported by a group of entrepreneurs. The company is looking for more sponsorship income in the near future. More skaters are expected to be added.
sport">Verweij and Leerdam say they consciously choose this new adventure, about which more announcements will be made in the near future. The two drove last season for Team Reggeborgh from coach Gerard van Velde. Although the Leerdam formation made a new offer, both parties did not come to an extended stay with the team. Reggeborgh no longer had a place for Verweij.
sport">Last week, Jac Orie, head coach of Jumbo-Visma, revealed that he expected that Leerdam would sign with the yellow-black brigade in the near future, for which Sven Kramer and Thomas Krol, among others, will play. That now also appears to have been ricocheted.
