Verona van de Leur, one of his protégés, was also voted “ Sports Woman of the Year ” in 2002 , Sportvrouw van het jaar .
His training methods and his handling of the wards did not go without public discussion, so there were allegations of emotional abuse and corporal punishment . In the daily newspaper “ Algemeen Dagblad ” and in the magazine “Helden” the allegations are made by several Dutch athletes, such as Verona van de Leur, Renske Endel , Gabriëlla Wammes (* 1985) and Suzanne Harmes (* 1986). Another coach, Gerrit Beltman, was also accused.
