Ard Schenk Award

The AEGON Ard Schenk Award is a Dutch speedskating award, instated in 1990, named after a famous Dutch speedskater Ard Schenk. Initially it was an award for the best speed skater, the marathon included. Since 2002 it's only for long track speed skating. Since 2003, best skating Teams are awarded as well.[1]

The statue is made by Wim Jonker (an artist from Haarlem, Netherlands). The statue is based on an old action photo of Ard Schenk.
