Sander van der Loos, 45 years old, married to Rolien, 3 kids (11, 13, 15). Lived in Amsterdam for the last 25 years but moved to Hilversum earlier this year. I come from a rugby crazy family. My father and four of his four brothers played for The Netherlands in the 70s and 80s. Started playing rugby from a young age at HRC. Played mainly at flyhalf. Was part of the 1^st team of HRC for 12 years, 3 times champion and 7 times runner-up… Tore my ACL at 31 which pretty much ended my playing career as I was also busy with family life and focusing on career, running my own company in Trading. I went into coaching when my kids started playing at Amstelveen. I trained and coached them in the U12’s and U14’s. Enjoyed it a lot so did a lot of courses and over the last few years got involved in the NL youth selections U17 and U18 and the Dutch Barbarians. Since this year I am also on the coaching staff for the Dames XV. Specialized in attack and backline coaching.

Very much looking forward to joining RC ‘t Gooi coachingstaff. It looks like a very promising group of players and coaches and it will be a privilege to work with everyone towards a great new season.

As discussed with the Board of ‘t Gooi, I will be busy with the Dames XV until half October, but I will be doing my best to be there when I can and help the team where I can until then. After that I will have full commitment towards ‘t Gooi.
