Maurits’ family, together with friends, has set up the Stichting Maurits van Nierop Foundation to continue the extraordinary character of this beautiful person, who was a fantastic sportsman besides being a beautiful friend.
There was never a dull moment with Maurits. Maurits was born in Capetown, South Africa and loved to play cricket and hockey during his life. The Foundation’s goal is to raise money for African children who don’t have the opportunity and financial means to play sports. In particular cricket and hockey.
