*[Soon I will do the test but I'm very busy with school at the moment.]*

In the beginning of the season I played in a small town called Huizen. The club, I played for is called HSV de Zuidvogels. Now, the 1st of Januar I transferred to another club called Saestum.
Before I played there I played for the club SV Loosdrecht. That's also the place where I grew up. I play soccer for about 9 years now.

I started playing soccer at age 8. First, my dad didn't want me to play. But when he saw that I really wanted this he agreed with my decision.
I was a player for 3 years, after that, I started on the goal.

When I was almost 12 years old I received an invitation to play for the Dutch Regional Team U-13. It wasn't really special at all because we were very young.
After 1,5 year I was too old so I couldn't go on with this team. I've never been invited for a higher team and that dissapointed me.

When I was 15 years old (2,5 years later) I was invited for the Dutch District Team U-16. I was really happy to get this oppurtunity again. After playing this match they told me I wasn’t good enough, so they refused me.

After this dissapointed message I was invited by the Dutch National Team U-17 to do a training with the goalkeepers. I went over there without expecting I would be in a selection. They just wanted to show me on what level they wanted me to have. This was the first time I saw those girls and thought that they were the best goalkeepers I’d ever seen. I was really amazed. That was just a higher level than I used to.
This was also the reason that I wanted to be better and be on the level, those girls already were.
I joined a boyteam for the first time and I was the only girl with 2 other girls (one of those girls is now playing in the Dutch National Team U-19). Everything changed from that moment. We are almost 4 years further and I think I’ve been much better now. But it doesn’t mean I’m on the top. I have a long long way to go and I’m still working on it.

Last year I was invited for Team Indonesia (Netherlands). That’s a selection of the best Indonesian and Molucan players of the country. Every year we play a tournament called WK Amsterdam. Watch video's
