Wiebke Hendriksen

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Wiebke Hendriksen (born January 31, 1951 in Kleve ) is a German table tennis player . She was twice European champion with the women's team and in 1978 she won the European mixed championship with Wilfried Lieck .

Career

Her enthusiasm for table tennis was aroused and promoted by her two brothers Holger and Hinrich. Soon afterwards she joined the association TTVg. Weiß-Rot-Weiß Kleve at where a girls team has just been set up. Here she was further promoted by experienced trainers, u. a. by Gisela Kück and the association trainer Béla Simon (husband of Agnes Simon ). The first successes came in 1966, when she qualified for the first time for the German youth championship and took second place in doubles. At the age of 12 she played in the Oberliga - the top German division at the time - and at 14 she even took first place.

Wiebke's game was defensive, but she mastered dangerous slaps with fore and backhand as a counterattack.

In 1968 she became German youth champion in singles and doubles, and in the same year she won the European championship with the German women's team in Lyon. In the further course of her career she was invited to 89 official international matches of the national team. She won the German championship three times in singles, doubles and mixed. She took part in world championships 5 times and in European championships 7 times.

A highlight was the European Mixed Championship in Duisburg in 1978. Together with Wilfried Lieck , she defeated the Hungarians Tibor Klampár and Gabriella Szabó in the final . It was confirmed by many experts that Wiebke Hendriksen played a major role in this victory by compensating for Lieck's uncertainties. For this success she was awarded the Silver Bay Leaf .

Wiebke Hendriksen played exclusively for the TTVg club . Weiß-Rot-Weiß Kleve , with whom she won the European Nancy Evans Cup twice and with whom she became German team champion in 1980. In 1984 she ended her career in competitive sports.

Private

Wiebke Hendriksen studied at the Pedagogical University in Neuss until 1974, after which she completed a supplementary course for secondary school teachers in Düsseldorf.
