Jeroen Kampschreur (Leiderdorp, 9 April 1999) is a Dutch paralympic skier.
Kampschreur was born without shinbones, which resulted in both of his legs being amputated above the knee at age one. As a cause of this, he is wheelchair-bound. He practiced wheelchair basketball, and represented the Netherlans in U18 and U22 level competitions, at one point being the youngest player in the U22 team , but decided to focus on para-alpine skiing. He won three gold medals on the 2017 world championship para-alpine skiing. Kampschreur participated in the 2018 Winter Paralympics where he won a gold medal in the men's super combined. This achievement made him the first Dutch athlete to win a medal in Para-Alpine Skiing at the Paralympics.
Kampschreur has served as an ambassador for the Johan Cruyff Foundation in the Netherlands.
Kampschreur trains at the National Sports Centre Papendal in Arnhem, Netherlands. He has sessions twice a day, five days a week.
