Dutch Young Riders Champion and team member Angela Krooswijk has received the possibility to go on a 5-day training seminar. The Dutch Olympic Committee (NOC-NSF) granted her this opportunity as part of the "Extra Impulse Talent Development 2011" plan.

Dutch young rider chef d'equipe Tineke Bartels recommended Rabobank Talent Team rider Krooswijk to apply for the training seminar and she has received the grant.

Krooswijk will be taking her horses Flash (by Fidermark) and youngsters Colt Sollenburg (by  Vivaldi) and Black Painted (by Painted Black) to Nicole Werner in Harskamp, The Netherlands, for a 5-day seminar this week.

"I'll be staying with Nicole until Friday," said Krooswijk. "I'm looking forward to it and I think it's good for me to hear someone else say and teach me different things."

Angela is normally trained by Coby van Baalen.
