Chris Vermeulen

Captain

I am a proud and passionate member from the very beginning and have been captain since the opening in 2017. I am the father of two daughters. In addition to being captain, I have also been the General Manager since November 2025. It is pretty clear that my heart belongs to this club. As a matter of fact, the house where I was born is just a stone’s throw from the green of hole 12 in Moorsel. So the surroundings of our golf club are very familiar to me, and I truly feel at home here. As club captain, I lead a team of volunteers who organize all the sporting aspects of golf at our club for you. Welcome to The National and enjoy!

Ivan Duncan

Marshall

My name is Ivan Duncan and I live in Zaventem, close to my favourite golf club, The National. Thanks to my Scottish roots, I am passionate about golf. My role at The National Golf is Head Marshal. I am very much looking forward to taking on this responsibility. Together with the other Marshals, we ensure that competitions run smoothly so that players can fully enjoy their game.

Jacques Boutelier

Sport Secretary

It's been 44 years since I contracted the golf bug on the magnificent links of Royal Ostend G.C. The contracted virus was so virulent that golf became my profession. In 1980 I started importing golfer's equipment and golf course material and in 1983 I opened the first store in Belgium exclusively dedicated to golf. From 1987 I also invested myself as a golf manager ("Secretary of Golf" as it was said at the time) by launching the Golf Château de la Tournette. Then the vagaries of the job did that I had the opportunity to work as a manager in other beautiful golf courses in Belgium (Golf de Durbuy, Five Nations Golf Club, Royal Antwerp GC ...) and France (Golf d'Apremont) , Blue Green Chantilly Golf). I am very happy and proud to be able to finish, as Sport Secretary, my career at the superb The National Golf Brussels.

Hervé Noreillie

Senior's Captain

Hello, I am Hervé, married to Magda, with one son and one grandson. In 2006, I discovered the sport of golf during an initiation at Golflife Center Sterrebeek. This is the predecessor of our beautiful The National. I was immediately hooked and became one of the first members. At Golflife, I was the men's captain. Now, I was asked to become the senior's captain at the beginning of 2022, which I happily accepted. Together with all the seniors, we are building a vibrant club life.

Victoria Bohn

Young Golfer's Captain

Since the beginning, Victoria has been a member of The National along with her parents and younger sister. In addition to her Masters in Business Engineering studies, she can often be found on the golf course during her free time. Her interest and passion for golf have grown over time, and she is now attracted not only to the competitive aspect but also the recreational side. She would like to enthusiastically convey this combination to the Young Golfers!

Tine D'hoore

Myriam Windeshausen

My name is Myriam, but everyone calls me Mimi. I have been a member of the National since the beginning and also a Marshal for a few years. I was a volunteer on the committee of a tennis club for several years as well, so I love club life! I've been retired for two years and therefore even more passionate about golf. I want to share this passion with you, since you have also caught this virus! I would like to welcome you to our club, help you discover how to progress with our pros, participate in competitions, meet other members with whom you can play and finish a nice game with a cold drink on our beautiful terrace. I'm here to answer your questions, and, with a great team at the National, we're here to support you during competitions, activities, and group lessons. Finally, to help you become part of our big family of golfers. I look forward to meeting you!

Vincent Colinet

Juniors Captain

Vincent has been a member of our club since 2018. It was in fact his children Finn and Lana who first took up golf, and passed on the bug for our sport to mum and dad. Vincent has almost always been present at junior competitions, so he knows the ins and outs of our juniors. If he's not caddying or supervising, you'll see him at weekends - usually with his family - taking part in our fun and qualifying competitions.

Bernard Huygens

Men's Captain

My name is Bernard Huygens, but you will more often come across me by the nickname “Gugue”. Sport runs in the family: after 47 years of hockey, I have devoted my passion to golf for the past 15 years. A member of The National since 2017, I have seen our club grow, and it is an honor to now serve as Captain of the Men’s section. My goal? To see more and more of you on the greens on Wednesdays, whether for the afternoon competitions or the late tee times starting at 5 p.m. But beyond competitions and interclub matches, I am keen to cultivate a true club spirit through our dinners and shared moments. My wish is that The National be much more than just a golf club: a place where people enjoy getting together at any time of the day. I look forward to seeing you at the club!
