Mark Bult
Born in 1982 and raised in the far north of the Netherlands, he left for Germany at a young age to pursue his dream: becoming a professional handball player.
Via HSG Nordhorn-Lingen and Füchse Berlin he ended his career as an active player in the far north of Germany, namely at SG Flensburg-Handewitt. There he immediately started his new career as a trainer. After years of being Maik Machulla's assistant, he assisted Danish top coach Nicolej Krickau. In July 2024 he started as a head coach at HSG Nordhorn-Lingen.
Mark lives close to Nordhorn with his wife Natascha and their 2 sons. Just like Mark, his wife also comes from a very sporty family, where his father-in-law Anatoli Galouza won several EHF Cups with SKA Minsk, and she herself was a more than accomplished tennis player. Naturally, both sons play handball as well.

PHILOSOPHIE
Auf jeder Position ein 1a und 1b Spieler
Auf jeder Position steht ein junger potenzieller Spieler, der hauptsächlich in der U23/U20-Mannschaft spielen wird
Wichtigste Positionen; Torwart, Spielmacher, Kreis
Grundspiel ‚Skandinavisch‘ Mix von Skandinavische, Deutsche und Niederländische spieler?
Dynamisch und flexibel
Mehr 1-1 Spieler als Distanzshooter, eventuell einige Talente (Rohrdiamanten)
Mehr 1-1 spieler weil dass das Spiel heutzutage ist und die spieler meistens bessere entscheidungsverhalten haben als Distanzshooter
Aussen Spieler mit hohe qualität, da wir ein Breites Grundspiel habe werden wir viel über Aussen Spielen.
Immer unberechenbar sein, klar hat man ein klare spiel idee, aber es werden nach gegner analyse immer 2-3 andere Spielerische Taktiken geben.
Klares spielstructur Implantieren
Individuele Stärken und Schwächen verbesseren/weiter entwickeln, wochentliches Positionsspezifisches training
Arbeit mit Torwart Trainer (2x pro Woche) der hat auch den Verantwortung die Torhüter sich intensiv auf den gegner vorzubereiten.
Intensiven Spiel vor und – nachbereitung. Video und Training.
