Catalogue information
First to fifth printing, all 5 released in 1995. Harry Vermeegen Ball Boy Stories from behind the net. A ball can roll strangely. For example, you still play with Louis van Gaal on the street and you are neatly trained to become a retailer at an Amsterdam trade school, and you work as a sports journalist for the daily newspaper De Tijd. Harry Vermeegen then worked for Accent and Kick, for Radio Noordzee, for Vara radio program Between start and finish, and in 1979 was seen on television as a football reporter and interviewer in the program Voetbal '80. After having only been involved with the sport from the sidelines for a number of years, he is now back in the thick of it with Die 2: New Cows, Veronica's successful sports program. Ball boy is about special encounters. It is a book full of incidents, anecdotes and conversations with people who capture the imagination.
