But his dream was shattered: \u201cI simply wasn\u2019t good enough yet\u201d, says Scheimann ten years later in a telephone interview. But he refused to give up.<\/p>\n<p>Following his unsuccessful attempt, Scheimann ended up with the amateur team Kozakken Boys in Werkendam. Here, he managed to seize the opportunity with both hands by delivering a strong performance in a cup game between his team and the Ajax first team. Ajax invited the left back for a traineeship. That meant the EUR student had to dial back on his studies: he would turn his studies in Psychology into part-time.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">International friendly<\/h2><p>His adventure with Ajax led to his breakthrough into professional football. \u201cAt the time Ajax 1 was out of my league, so they advised me to play at FC Den Bosch. There, I played for three years and then a season with Excelsior.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In 2012, Scheimann and Excelsior were relegated; \u201ca low point in my career\u201d, as he calls it. However, the high point followed just three days later: Israel invited him for an international friendly. He accompanied the Israeli national team to a training camp in Germany, where he played his only international match up till now against the Czech Republic. \u201cA dream come true from start to finish. I never expected this to happen, especially just after relegation.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Very different<\/h2>\n\t<div data-name=\"acf\/posts-list\" >\n\t\t\n\t\t<div class=\"space-y-6 md:space-y-8\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"text-lg md:text-xl\">More in #20yearsofEM<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<ul class=\"grid items-strecth grid-cols-1 gap-2 md:gap-4 lg:gap-8\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<li class=\"@container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n<div data-component=\"teaser-post-small\" class=\"block-theme-sand  relative flex h-full bg-sand-300\n\tblock-theme-violet:bg-white block-theme-violet:text-purple block-theme-mocha:bg-sand-500 block-theme-mocha:text-brown\n\tblock-theme-sand:bg-sand-300 block-theme-sand:text-neutral-900\n\tblock-theme-violet:outline-purple-100 block-theme-violet:outline-1 block-theme-violet:outline-t-0\n\ttheme-mocha:bg-white! theme-violet:bg-white! theme-sand:bg-white!\n\tflex-row gap-4 @md:gap-8 p-4 @md:p-6\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"image:w-full image:aspect-square image:object-cover shrink-0 size-17.5 @sm:size-21.25 @md:size-30 @lg:size-40\">\n\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"460\" height=\"307\" src=\"https:\/\/www.erasmusmagazine.nl\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2018\/02\/08152253\/Dorottya-Kiss-foto-Bambos-Demetriou-1.jpg?image-crop-positioner-ts=1766139136\" class=\"attachment-square_lg size-square_lg\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.erasmusmagazine.nl\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2018\/02\/08152253\/Dorottya-Kiss-foto-Bambos-Demetriou-1.jpg?image-crop-positioner-ts=1766139136 2000w, https:\/\/www.erasmusmagazine.nl\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2018\/02\/08152253\/Dorottya-Kiss-foto-Bambos-Demetriou-1-300x200.jpg?image-crop-positioner-ts=1766139136 300w, https:\/\/www.erasmusmagazine.nl\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2018\/02\/08152253\/Dorottya-Kiss-foto-Bambos-Demetriou-1-875x584.jpg?image-crop-positioner-ts=1766139136 875w, https:\/\/www.erasmusmagazine.nl\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2018\/02\/08152253\/Dorottya-Kiss-foto-Bambos-Demetriou-1-1280x854.jpg?image-crop-positioner-ts=1766139136 1280w, https:\/\/www.erasmusmagazine.nl\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2018\/02\/08152253\/Dorottya-Kiss-foto-Bambos-Demetriou-1-1600x1068.jpg?image-crop-positioner-ts=1766139136 1600w, https:\/\/www.erasmusmagazine.nl\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2018\/02\/08152253\/Dorottya-Kiss-foto-Bambos-Demetriou-1-150x100.jpg?image-crop-positioner-ts=1766139136 150w, https:\/\/www.erasmusmagazine.nl\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2018\/02\/08152253\/Dorottya-Kiss-foto-Bambos-Demetriou-1-225x150.jpg?image-crop-positioner-ts=1766139136 225w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 460px) 100vw, 460px\" \/>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\n\t<div class=\"flex flex-col gap-2 md:gap-4 \">\n\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"text-md @lg:text-lg\">\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.erasmusmagazine.nl\/en\/2018\/02\/11\/creeren-delen-en-inspireren-doe-ik-nu-op-een-ander-podium\/\" class=\"absolute-link text-current hocus:underline inline-block\">\n\t\t\t\t\u2018I now create, share and inspire on a different stage\u2019\n\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t<\/h3>\n\n\t\t<div class=\"flex flex-wrap gap-4 items-center\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"sr-only\">Gepubliceerd op:<\/span>\n\t\t\t<time class=\"text-sm font-soehne text-neutral-900\" datetime=\"2018-02-11\">11 February 2018<\/time>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t<ul data-component=\"list-badges\" class=\"flex items-center gap-2 flex-wrap\" aria-label=\"Geplaatst in categorie\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<li>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div data-component=\"badge\" class=\"block-theme-violet:bg-purple font-soehne font-bold text-sm bg-brown-600 block-theme-violet:bg-purple text-white py-[2px] px-2\">\n\t\t\t\t\tCampus\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/li>\n\t\t\t<\/ul>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/ul>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<p>For Scheimann, who lived in Israel until he was five, the training camp marked the moment that he felt like he really belonged in the land of his birth. \u201cMy Hebrew wasn\u2019t very good then and of course the guys spoke Hebrew all the time. You pick it up really quickly that way\u201d, he laughs. \u201cI also learned the customs and the culinary culture. It was all very different to what I was used to.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As a result of his selection, Israeli clubs were lining up to sign him and consequently, at the age of 24, he returned to Israel to play for Maccabi Haifa. While he had family living in Israel, his parents remained in the Netherlands. That was a big sacrifice. \u201cMy mother finds it difficult that I don\u2019t live close by, although I do travel back and forth frequently, and my parents often come to visit me. My family is very important to me and that\u2019s why I want to close out my football career in the Netherlands\u201d, says Scheimann, now 30. It almost happened last summer when VVV showed real interest in signing him.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">First big cup win<\/h2><p>The fact that the deal never went through turned out to be a blessing in disguise. Playing with his current club Hapoel Haifa, Scheimann has the chance to win his first major trophy: the Israeli State Cup. On 9 May, his team will play in the final against Beitar Jerusalem. \u201cI hope that this successful season will perhaps help me to advance my career. After that, I want to wind down my career in the Netherlands.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Scheimann never gave up his studies. \u201cI resumed my studies in Psychology because that subject is close to my heart. First I studied in Leiden and later at a good English-language university in Israel.\u201d He has almost completed his studies and will graduate this summer. If his football career ends, he wants to get his coaching license and work as a sport psychologist. \u201cIt would be fantastic to work with children. I spent years in the youth academies of top football clubs, so I know exactly how that world works.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\t<div data-name=\"acf\/persons\" class=\"mt-6 md:mt-8 lg:mt-10\" >\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2
