I’ve been involved with baseball since I was a child and the fire that ignited back then still burns in me to this day.
I have been coaching the catchers of the Düsseldorf Senators in all age groups since 2016 and continue to educate myself through various catcher programs. In 2017 I became part of the softball fun team of the Düsseldorf Wild Senators, which I had been responsible for since then. After the retreat from league competition in 2019, I was glad to be considered a candidate for the Women’s Softball team, which I took over in 2020. ever since I spend as much of my free time as I can to provide the best practices possible.

If I can manage to convey joy, passion and a sense of community, to ignite the little flame that makes this sport so unique, then I know I’ve done a good job.

2014-2019 Coaching all levels of Youth-Baseball

Current Responsiblities:

• Coach and Coordinator for the Women’s Softballteam

And why do I do this?
Because I’ve been obsessed with baseball since the first time I caught and hit a ball. This enthusiasm is increased by the game, which offers so many tactical opportunities and is an individual and a team sport at the same time. To share this enthusiasm, to accompany players in their development, to form a team that is playing together is fulfilling and, for me, one of the best ways to spend my free time.
