Confidential Contact Persons
Confidential Contact Person
Potential problems can always be raised with the board. If this is not an option, or if you prefer to discuss matters anonymously with someone, there are several options. A confidential contact person has been appointed within the association that you can contact at any time. If you prefer to talk outside the association, the ACLO and KNZB also have people you can turn to. Finally, there is the possibility to seek for contact through various methods on the website of Centrum Veilig Sport Nederland (Centrum for safe sport Netherlands) (CVSN). Below are all links to the different options.
2.1 Confidential Contact Person G.S.Z.V. De Golfbreker
Hi dear Golfbrekers!
My name is Linne Boerma. I've been swimming almost my whole life, and I've been a member of De Golfbreker for five years now. In my first year, I was part of the Travel Committee and got to help organize a fun trip. In the second year, I joined the Sponsor Committee. In the third year, I was chair of the Travel Committee, and we organized two amazing trips. Finally, I was also a member of the NSZK Committee!
I’ve really enjoyed attending almost all of De Golfbreker’s activities and have met so many great people here (still do 😉).
In the meantime, I’ve graduated and have been working for a while now as a sociotherapist at a psychiatric centre.
After serving as a confidential contact person for four years, I’ll be continuing in this role for a fifth year. I really value being there for you when needed.
If there’s something on your mind or you simply want to talk, feel free to contact me!
Dear Golfbrekers,
Thanks for the trust Frank has given me to take over the role and join Linne as a Confidential Contact Person (VCP) at De Golfbreker.
That's why I’d like to share a bit about the role and about myself.
I believe it’s important that our association maintains a positive, open atmosphere where everyone can grow and develop in their own way. If something’s going on or you’re just not feeling your best, know that you can always come to Linne or me for a listening ear.
I grew up on a dairy farm in Oldehove, a small village in the province of Groningen. After living in a few different places, I eventually settled down in another small village in Groningen called Eenrum.
My biggest hobby is going on adventures. That can mean visiting friends, going to festivals, or attending (inter)national agricultural conferences and trade fairs. I spend my weekends and holidays doing sports with friends or traveling abroad—for example, to go hiking.
As for my studies… well, it wasn’t exactly your typical Groningen student story. Since October 2023, I’ve been a member of the association through a special exemption (yep, a bit of a unique case), as I was doing a part-time MSc in Digital Business in Amsterdam while also working four days a week in Groningen. Before that, I completed a bachelor’s in Agricultural Business Administration at Aeres University of Applied Sciences in Dronten.
From the very beginning, being a member felt like a warm welcome—even during the times I wasn’t super active. Last summer, I graduated and now I work full-time as a project manager focusing on precision agriculture at Agrifirm in Apeldoorn.
Thanks for reading, talk to you soon—and don’t forget: city folks aren’t the only ones who love the association life! 😄
