Rotterdam Topsport, Rotterdam Partners, Rotterdam Make It Happen and Rollt. are combining efforts to bring you coverage of the Wheelchair Basketball Women’s European Championships which are taking place from June 30th to July 7th.
Thanks to the support by Rotterdam Partners the full European Championships will be featured on all Rollt. channels. Video interviews with players and coaches, statements of decision-makers, insights of the Euros, daily summaries, Instagram stories including visits to Rotterdam’s accessible hotspots, interesting background stories and A LOT of photos are building the foundation of the on-location reporting. To produce content in Rotterdam we were able to partner up with photographer Steffie Wunderl and wheelchair basketball player and Girls & Ladies Commission member Simona Ladzik. This duo will be supported by our Scottish Rollt. reporter Dylan Cummings, who will join them in producing English-speaking content. All photos, postings and videos can be found using the hashtag #rotterdammakeithappen.
