Chris Vermeulen

Captain

My name is Christiaan Vermeulen, 51, and I am the Club Captain. Together with my wife, also a member of our club, I am a passionate father of 2 daughters and a golf fanatic. I love the sport. I am professionally active as CEO at Le Wine. Above all proud to be allowed to build on the growth of our beautiful club, The National, almost literally in my backyard: born in Moorsel (Tervuren) and now living in Wezembeek-Oppem. The National Golf Brussels is located between both. I stand at the head of our sports council and happy to serve all our members and visitors, to give them as much fun as possible.

Ivan Duncan

Marshall

I am Ivan Duncan, happily married with two children and two grandchildren. Which my grandson also plays golf and my granddaughter works as a student at The National. I am your Head Marshall, living in Zaventem, close to my favorite golf club. Because of my Scottish roots I am possessed by the beast. I have been playing golf for more than 20 years. I spend most of my free time at The National, where I try to lead competitions in good jobs with my fellow Marshalls. I am looking forward to take on this task.

Jacques Boutelier

Sport Secretary

It's been 44 years since I contracted the golf bug on the magnificent links of Royal Ostend G.C. The contracted virus was so virulent that golf became my profession. In 1980 I started importing golfer's equipment and golf course material and in 1983 I opened the first store in Belgium exclusively dedicated to golf. From 1987 I also invested myself as a golf manager ("Secretary of Golf" as it was said at the time) by launching the Golf Château de la Tournette. Then the vagaries of the job did that I had the opportunity to work as a manager in other beautiful golf courses in Belgium (Golf de Durbuy, Five Nations Golf Club, Royal Antwerp GC ...) and France (Golf d'Apremont) , Blue Green Chantilly Golf). I am very happy and proud to be able to finish, as Sport Secretary, my career at the superb The National Golf Brussels.

Hervé Noreillie

Senior's Captain

Hello, I am Hervé, married to Magda, with one son and one grandson. In 2006, I discovered the sport of golf during an initiation at Golflife Center Sterrebeek. This is the predecessor of our beautiful The National. I was immediately hooked and became one of the first members. At Golflife, I was the men's captain. Now, I was asked to become the senior's captain at the beginning of 2022, which I happily accepted. Together with all the seniors, we are building a vibrant club life.

Victoria Bohn

Young Golfer's Captain

Since the beginning, Victoria has been a member of The National along with her parents and younger sister. In addition to her Masters in Business Engineering studies, she can often be found on the golf course during her free time. Her interest and passion for golf have grown over time, and she is now attracted not only to the competitive aspect but also the recreational side. She would like to enthusiastically convey this combination to the Young Golfers!

Tine D'hoore

Peter Baader

Men's Captain

I am Peter Baader, the Men's Captain of the National. Golf has accompanied me for nearly 40 years of my life and has always been a source of pleasure and happiness. Since my retirement in mid-2021 golf has become my most important day to day activity. Apart from being a golfer, I am also a referee with the Royal Belgian Golf Federation - just to show you to which extremes I take this game. I am half German and half Spanish, married and the father of one grown-up son, an architect in Germany. As men's captain and Chris Vermeulen's deputy my mission is to contribute to an excellent club life, both in golf and social terms, success in the Interclub competitions - and motivate members to play fairly and follow the rules. I am a passionate member of the National and will always strive to give the club my best.

Myriam Windeshausen

My name is Myriam, but everyone calls me Mimi. I have been a member of the National since the beginning and also a Marshal for a few years. I was a volunteer on the committee of a tennis club for several years as well, so I love club life! I've been retired for two years and therefore even more passionate about golf. I want to share this passion with you, since you have also caught this virus! I would like to welcome you to our club, help you discover how to progress with our pros, participate in competitions, meet other members with whom you can play and finish a nice game with a cold drink on our beautiful terrace. I'm here to answer your questions, and, with a great team at the National, we're here to support you during competitions, activities, and group lessons. Finally, to help you become part of our big family of golfers. I look forward to meeting you!

Vincent Colinet

Juniors Captain

Vincent has been a member of our club since 2018. It was in fact his children Finn and Lana who first took up golf, and passed on the bug for our sport to mum and dad. Vincent has almost always been present at junior competitions, so he knows the ins and outs of our juniors. If he's not caddying or supervising, you'll see him at weekends - usually with his family - taking part in our fun and qualifying competitions.
