Board

Welcome to the page about the D.S.S.V. Tartaros board.

Chairman: Marco Chambon
Hi everyone, I’m Marco and next year I will be chairman of Tartaros. I’ll tell you a bit about myself so you know a little more about me.
I am currently 21 and in my first year of CreaTe at the UT. I’ve been doing survival in Udenhout for about 5 years, where I still train every weekend. In addition to survival, I also did swimming among other sports.
So I really like sports and that’s why I wanted to give something back so I decided to do a board year for Tartaros. I’m really looking forward to it and looking forward to a year in which more is possible than last year!

Secretary: Timo Bijen
Hey, I’m Timo Bijen and I’m the secretary of Tartaros.
I come from Hengelo and survivalrun in Oldenzaal, since the age of 8. So I’ve been survivalrunning for quite some time and when I started studying mechanical engineering in 2019 I knew I had to become a member of Tartaros.
During the Kick-In, I was part of the Van ‘t Padje do-group, so I could already get to know the association. I am currently also working as a trainer and instructor at OCP. I also love to go mountain biking.

Treasurer: Martijn van Elderen
Hiya, I am Martijn van Elderen and will be the treasurer coming year for Tartaros. I am a second-year electrical engineering student at the moment of writing.
Survival run is not the first sport I have practiced in my life. Before joining Tartaros I have played football (the kind which is played with the foot) for approximately 12 years, and I have been a member of the Motorsport Group for 1 year. Currently I am also cycling and playing basketball with friends outside of survival run.
Survival run for me is a challenging combination of strength, condition, and technique. Because of this you will often find me once a week one the track. Furthermore, I enjoy that obstacles can be overcome in more than one way. Tartaros is not only about sporting, but also about sociability.

Commissioner of internal affairs: Jarne Sikkens
Heyhey, I’m Jarne Sikkens and for this year I will be the Commissioner of internal affairs.
I am 20 years old, in my third year in mechanical engineering and have been with Tartaros for 2 years now. I was born in Grijpskerk, a small village in Groningen, where I always lived until I went to study in Enschede.
Before I went to university I always played football, but wanted to try something new and then accidentally discoverd survivalrun. I did an introtraining and was immediatly sold, this was a good sport for me. The running, the hurdles and the use of strength and technique to overcome those hurdles immediatly appealed to me.
In addition, the social aspect of the sport is also very improtant to me, drinking a beer in the sports canteen after training, the activities and of course the fire pit evenings. My hobbies besides Tataros are football, anything that drives and recently surfing.
