Jente Hauttekeete

I am an athlete who is not easily satisfied with a performance. I always want to do better than the previous race and keep improving my personal records. I like to learn quickly. Sometimes I try to imitate or learn a technique by watching other athletes. I am very motivated during training and I don't give up easily, but sometimes I dare to let my head hang down when things don't go as I had hoped. I am always open to humour and jokes on and off the slopes.

Athletics
I am 22 years old and I have been practicing athletics since I was 12 years old. I am a qualified primary school teacher since June 2021 and I try to combine sport and work as much as possible. I am hard-working and determined, and I always give my best whether it is in training, in competition or even in my personal life. Apart from athletics, I also enjoy cooking, baking and walking.

Tennis
I am Sofia Costoulas, I was born in Genk and I am 18 years old. I started playing tennis when I was 4 years old and I still love it. I study human sciences and besides tennis I like to be creative. My biggest hobby is Pokémon, both Pokémon games and collecting Pokémon cards. I am a great animal lover, so if I didn't travel so much it would be Pairi Daiza at home ;-) My biggest dream is to take part in the Olympic Games and win a medal for Belgium.
