Nadat hij decennia lang actief was in het onderwijs én -op vrijwillige basis- als gerespecteerd jurylid nam Vincent Reimering een rigoureus besluit. Hij wilde zich fulltime gaan bezighouden met ‘zijn' sport, solliciteerde naar de functie van technisch directeur bij de KNGU en kwam als beste kandidaat uit de bus. Zo begint voor Reimering een nieuw leven in een bekende wereld. Turners en coaches: hij kent ze allemaal. Maar waar hij in het verleden een vraagbaak en adviseur was in zijn rol als jurylid, gaat hij nu over kwalificatieprocedures, afvaardiging naar grote toernooien en de organisatie van zowel het mannen- als het vrouwenturnen. Reimering wordt de man die knopen moet gaan doorhakken. Zeker nu de KNGU voortaan doorgaat zonder bondscoaches. In Turnpunt vertelt Vincent Reimering over zijn overstap en over de ‘TD' die hij wil zijn: zakelijk (excell is zijn hobby…), objectief, maar ook empathisch. En uiteraard gaat het over de ambities nu de nieuwe Olympische cyclus is begonnen. Met het EK, eind mei in Leipzig, als belangrijke eerste graadmeter.
