Sportcentrum VU, USC, and SSA nominated for the Penning Award
Sportcentrum VU, USC & SSA have been nominated for the Penning Award. This is an annual award presented by the Amsterdam Sports Councilto a person or organisation that has made an exceptional contribution to sport in the city.
A tremendous honour! The reason for our nomination is that, thanks in part to our efforts, thousands of students continue to have access to a wide range of affordable sports activities, despite impending price increases that would make sports inaccessible to many young people.
The award ceremony took place on Thursday 3 July at the Stadsschouwburg in Amsterdam. During the festive evening, it was announced that Northside Ballers Amsterdam had been chosen as the winner of the Penning.
We would like to congratulate Northside Ballers!
