TeamNL

TeamNL is an umbrella organization of Dutch sports associations. An evaluation after the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil led to some organizational reforms within NOC*NSF.[1] Former chef de mission Maurits Hendriks wanted to generate more revenue with TeamNL, in addition to income from games of chance and investments by the Ministry of Health, Welfare and Sport. At the 2016 Olympics, the name TeamNL was already used, but for the 2020 Summer Olympics it will be more directly linked to the larger project of NOC*NSF.[2] The affiliated associations are:[3]
