Associations and municipality sign letter of intent for new facilities at Blankensteijn sports park
MHC Vianen, v.v. Brederodes and councillor Kees Bel have officially signed the letter of intent for the construction of two new multi-functional facilities at Blankensteijn sports park. By signing, the parties confirm their joint ambition to realise new, future-proof club and changing facilities that also provide space for activities and social gatherings.
Important step following an intensive process
The signing marks a milestone. Over the past period, there has been extensive discussion, consultation and alignment. By signing, all parties indicate their support for the agreements made. This paves the way for the next steps: further developing the plans and preparing for construction.
Councillor Kees Bel: “I am proud of the process we have gone through together with the associations and that we can now take concrete steps towards future-proof facilities. These will be places where everyone can participate, where friendships are formed, memories are made and champions are born.”
More space for sport and social interaction
The new facilities will have an attractive and inviting appearance, contribute to safety at the sports park and provide space for activities and gatherings. In the future, not only the associations but also other social organisations will be able to use the facilities for activities or collaborations. This will make them important places for both athletes and the local community.
Earlier support from v.v. Brederodes members
In December 2025, the members of v.v. Brederodes already unanimously approved the plans for a new club and changing facility. The signing of this letter of intent now confirms that both the associations and the municipality are committed to building a sports park ready for the future.
