Bert van Sprang was the founder of the Dutch youth division ("JWG", or Jongerenwerkgroep) of the Dutch association of meteorology and astronomy ("NVWS", or Nederlandse Vereniging voor Weer- en Sterrenkunde) in 1967. Activities carried out by Van Sprang for the JWG included the organization of astro camps, the setting up of a program to build telescopes cheaply, and the writing of many booklets on astronomy topics.
