𝙃𝙚𝙧𝙚 𝙬𝙚 𝙜𝙤! After 3 great years working at @afcajax in the Performance Department it’s time to move on.

After speaking to several clubs, other sports organizations and federations, I have decided to move forward as a private and independent Sprint & Explosive Movement coach for professional athletes, football players and hockey players.

My private business will reach it’s 5 year anniversary this year and last year alone the client list went up by 500%, with clients ranging from @eredivisie @laliga to Olympic hockey & rugby players and Olympic sprinters. I can’t wait to see how fast we will grow this year!

Any player or athlete that wants to get faster, improve on sprint speed, fast movements, explosive power, endurance & strength: text me or have your agent reach out! Let’s work together to make you a more complete and faster athlete/player. Pro’s only 📥 🔒

To all the players and colleagues at Ajax, you know who you are. Thanks for everything and the great times we shared, I hope you will all reach your goals. My heart will always be with the club ❌❌❌ 👍🏼 taken in Amsterdam, Netherlands by @koen_smet

Final tweaks for the trophy platform team

Vlogging life

20+ volunteers have helped me throughout the weekend, to get athletes from kit collection to Transport, to warm up area, to VIP, through Mixed Zone. Without them, it would have been impossible.

Amazing team Event Presentation to work with

Final sound check @mondo_duplantis for the end show

This was the real sound check. Singing Boney M - Daddy Cool with my little princess

End show was great! All the champions with their trophies on the track and Mondo singing his own song.

Back home. Someone was very tired 😴

How amazing this year turned out for both of us.. me going into retirement and finding myself in a complete new role and being at the same major champs as @anna.roelofs who had the most stellar year with big PB’s, national team selection, two tournaments and running at a diamond league. Proud of us #powercouple❤️ by @koen_smet

Post Event & Athlete Coordinator

Pleased to announce that I will be part of the World Athletics @ultimateathleticschampionship as your Post Event & Athlete Coordinator.

My role will be focused on the operational side of the event, overseeing event processes, supporting logistics across the venue, and coordinating VIP, family & friends areas to help everything run smoothly behind the scenes.

A big part of the role will also be making sure the athletes have the best possible experience throughout the event, from the little details to the moments that matter.

Looking forward to being part of an incredible team and helping bring this event to life. 🇭🇺⚡️

Proud of your pro debut @kovacs.bendeguz7 with Jong AZ. One of the hardest working players I had the pleasure of working with, always hungry and eager to aim higher and a great example for the younger players. Let’s get it going 🔥 taken in Amsterdam, Netherlands by @koen_smet

⚡️ Sharp minds. Quick feet. Stronger defenders. ⚡️

In this session, I am training elite central defender @anselmogarciaa with change of direction, reaction speed, and decision-making, all powered by SportReact.

The lights challenge him to read, react, and turn around his axis under pressure. In football, it’s not just about being fast, it’s about reacting faster than your opponent.

SportReact brings the game closer to reality: cognition + speed + execution.

👉 Perfect for players who want to raise their level.
👉 Essential for coaches who want to add smart, reactive drills to their toolbox.
