Kampong sign Van Grimbergen from Oranje-Rood
Kampong has strengthened its squad for next season with Sophie van Grimbergen. The 23-year-old midfielder comes over from Oranje-Rood and had signed a contract for two seasons in Utrecht.
Van Grimbergen went through the youth academy of HC Eindhoven and previously played in the main teams of Push and Tilburg. At Oranje-Rood, she grew into a defining midfield force in three seasons.
According to Top Hockey Committee member Alexander de Vries, Van Grimbergen fits perfectly into the club's long-term vision: 'With her arrival, we add an essential piece to our strategy to structurally challenge the top three.'
Van Grimbergen is the second outside reinforcement for Kampong, which earlier reported the arrival of Amsterdam midfielder Noor de Baat.
