✨ Stichting Learn to Fly bestaat 4 jaar! ✨

Afgelopen jaren hebben we met trots projecten gerealiseerd in Senegal, Albanië, Parijs en Den Haag. We waren onderdeel van de Haagse Sportzomer en met onze Let’s Play netten in Den Haag hebben we bewoners die normaal niet sporten geïnspireerd met deze mooie sport.

We leiden trainers op en zijn inmiddels uitgegroeid van 2 trainers naar een volledig opgeleid team van 8 trainers en 4 invalkrachten. Ook zijn we uitgebreid naar Almere, Capelle aan den IJssel en een 2e locatie in Den Haag.

In november staat er een trainingskamp in Maleisië op de planning.

Hoogtepunt dit jaar was onze beloning in het Haagse Boek ‘Trots’, als erkenning voor onze positieve bijdrage aan de stad. 🏸💛💚

“I won’t be a rock star. I will be a legend.” – Freddie Mercury

🙏 Een speciaal dankwoord aan iedereen die in ons gelooft, ons steunt en helpt. Samen maken we dit mogelijk.

Speciale dank aan:
Ilka de Jong ontwerper van onze logo die inmiddels erg herkenbaar is

Ronald Heijstek & Yonex Badminton voor hun geloof en steun in ons vanaf het begin van onze reis!

Gisteren waren we aanwezig bij de Haagse Sportzomer op locatie Laakveld! 🏸✨ Een mooie kennismaking met badminton, vol energie en plezier.

Namens Learn to Fly stonden Dylan, Manuel en Kor klaar om de bewoners kennis te laten maken met onze sport. Het was geweldig om zoveel enthousiasme en betrokkenheid te zien! 🙌

Dit alles was mogelijk in samenwerking met WSDH en de Gemeente Den Haag – samen maken we sport toegankelijk voor iedereen. 💪

𝐒𝐮𝐦𝐦𝐞𝐫 𝐢𝐧 𝐌𝐨𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 This week, Tak Ling is heading to Vejen, Denmark, for the second phase of her Advance Coach education. Coincidentally, that’s the exact same location where Eefje will be one week later, taking on the role of head coach at the Badminton Europe Summer Camp

𝐓𝐚𝐤 𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠 & 𝐄𝐞𝐟𝐣𝐞 Were often asked whether they still work together. The answer is simple: yes. Learn to Fly continues to exist as a non-profit organization. In recent years, we’ve proudly worked on a number of projects – from international collaborations with
Futbol Mas and NOC*NSF in Paris to clinics in Senegal, and from installing Let’s Play nets in The Hague to supporting local community initiatives. In the years to come, we hope to keep making this kind of impact – both locally and internationally.

At the same time, there have been some changes. Eefje recently relocated to Almere, where she is in the process of starting a new company within the badminton world. As part of this journey, she’ll be traveling across Europe over the next five weeks. Curious to follow her travels? You can do so via on instagram

Meanwhile, Tak Ling is organizing training sessions in Capelle aan den IJssel and Den Haag, where she launched new locations. A recent video shoot marked the start of this exciting new chapter.

From September onwards, we’ll be teaming up again in Mariahoeve. We’ll be coaching a steady group of eight players(group is full) across two courts. We’re grateful to Veni and Richard De Visch Eijbergen for making this possible.

ɪᴛ'ꜱ ʟɪᴋᴇ ᴛʜᴀᴛ ᴀɴᴅ ᴛʜᴀᴛ'ꜱ ᴛʜᴇ ᴡᴀʏ ɪᴛ ɪꜱ
Our love for badminton, music and a love for a good glass of red wine plus the joy of working together.

We often hear that our training sessions are different — and that is appreciated.

(Bottom of the page)
Tak Ling and Eefje are both head coaches and founders of Learn to Fly. From the age of 12 to 18, they were part of the national team. Eefje became Dutch junior champion five times.

Quote from Tak Ling:
"Most badminton coaches are former players or parents who do it on the side. But we are both top-level athletes. Eefje has a background in education, and I come from healthcare. Thanks to our elite sports experience and our pedagogical backgrounds, we approach their child differently — and parents truly appreciate that."
