Jan Bols
Ice Skater
  • General Info
General Information
Description
Jan Bols is a former Dutch long track speed skater. Bols was among the top all-rounders in the late 60s and early 70s, this period overlapped the glory days of Kees Verkerk and Ard Schenk, so that he tends to be known as the third best Dutch skater of his time. Bols participated in the 1968 and 1972 Olympics, but, as an all-rounder rather than a distance specialist, he did not win medals. His best results were a 5th place on the 1,500m and a 4th place on the 10,000 m in 1972 in Sapporo. He also came in 4th at both the European and World all-round championships in 1970. In 1971 he actually won the Dutch championships ahead of Verkerk and Schenk. He was in excellent shape at the European Championships in Heerenveen that year and finished second at both the 500m and 5000m the first day and was first in the standing. During the 5000m a failure to change lanes resulted in him skating two outer lanes in a row and a disqualification. The next day, his fans waved a commercial Bols flag half-staff in the stadium. Bols did medal in both the 1972 European and World all-round championships.
