The next generation of women's cycling.

Peddelaars Dames is the U19 women's cycling programme of WSV de Peddelaars in Hoogeveen. We race on the road, on the track and in cyclocross.

Our story

The programme started in 2026 as the performance team of WSV de Peddelaars. Our riders are students who combine school, training and racing. Riders from the programme have represented the Netherlands at World and European Championships. In its first season the team won Toekomst Cup races and riders reached the podium at international UCI races.
