The DAKA award for local enthusiasts

Each year, Hedensted Gymnastics Club presents the DAKA Award to people who make a special contribution to the club. 

In 2026 the prize went to Maja Gadegaard Laursen and Linda Jensen. 

Maja was recognised for her great commitment as an assistant coach for the Spring 3rd-4th grade class, where throughout the season she has taken responsibility, contributed to the training, and been an important support for both gymnasts and coaches. 

Linda received the award for her efforts on the same team. With care, presence and a keen eye for the individual gymnast, she has become an important part of everyday life in the sports hall and someone that both children and coaches can rely on. 

The award is a recognition of the people who help to create great experiences and strong communities for children and young people. It is precisely this type of commitment that Daka wants to support in the local community.
