ADO Den Haag Footcamp Back on the Road!

ADO Den Haag Footcamp is the club’s lifestyle programme for our supporters when it comes to healthy eating/drinking and sufficient exercise in order to make a positive contribution to health. Together with the social trainers of ADO Den Haag, 20 supporters got to work again during the Summer edition, taking place on the artificial pitches of the youth academy in Zuiderpark. This marks the return of the ADO Den Haag Footcamp after an eventful project season.

On Wednesday 31 May, a football tournament was organised for all former Footcamp and KicksFit members. As many as 32 people got the chance to kick a ball around on the main pitch. This tournament was organised because KicksFit ADO Den Haag, a partnership with the KNVB at HVV Laakkwartier, will not be continued next season.

For an hour, the participants could get used to the feeling of playing in a full stadium. After a short warm-up, which did require getting used to the grass for some, the tournament started. Three matches of around 15 minutes proved their intensity. Eventually, the turf proved to serve as a biological mattress for many after the matches. Exhausted and defeated, the participants laid down to recover from a fun evening of football. After thanking everyone involved while enjoying a refreshing drink, it was time to return home. After this wonderful conclusion, the participants could start getting ready for a great sequel!

Monday 5 June marked the start of the ADO Den Haag Footcamp Summer edition. Throughout the summer period, ADO Den Haag organises energetic Footcamp training sessions at de Aftrap, ADO Den Haag’s youth complex. A creative mix between Bootcamp and Footcamp training ensures that you can start the new season fit. This not only keeps the players of the first team fit in the summer, but the fans as well! On Monday and Thursday evenings, more than 15 people get to work on improving their own bodies. With certified trainers and other ADO fans, they work towards a common goal: getting fitter!
