- Tupker Language Training ‘knowledge partner’ Royal Netherlands Cricket Association KNCB

Amstelveen, 20 December 2022 -- Today Tupkertaaltraining (Tupker Language Training) and the Royal Netherlands Cricket Association (KNCB) sign a sponsorship agreement for three years. Tupkertaaltraining will annually provide services to the cricket community in the field of language, media and communication training.
KNCB’s CEO Monica Visser is delighted with the knowledge partnership: "About half of the Dutch cricket community consists of people from other countries. These can be expats who are temporarily stationed here or people who have settled here permanently. We are very pleased that Tupkertaaltraining can meet the first needs of these people: to teach them the basics of the Dutch language and also to help them integrate into Dutch society."
Richard Walraven of Tupkertaaltraining explains: "Language is pre-eminently the means to integrate into Dutch society; in sports, social life and at school. The better the communication between people, the better things run. Our knowledge partnership with the KNCB will lead to a great collaboration."
