Career and background
ADO Den Haag appointed Glotzbach from its under-17 programme in December 2024. He had coached in the girls’ academy since 2018/19, initially with the under-16s, and had already worked with many of the players who progressed to the senior team. In the appointment announcement he stressed that professional selection decisions would come before family ties, as his daughter Lauren was part of the squad.Source: ADO Den Haag ↗
The club subsequently terminated his first-team contract before its planned mid-2026 end date, citing results while thanking him for his development work. Outside football, Wiegman has described his teaching background and his decision to reduce school-management responsibilities so that she could pursue full-time coaching.Sources: ADO Den Haag ↗ · Grazia ↗
