Klaas-Jan Jeroen van Noortwijk (born 10 July 1970 in Rotterdam, Zuid-Holland) is a former Dutch cricketer. He is a right-handed batsman and a right-arm medium-pace bowler.
He started playing cricket at VOC in Rotterdam when he was 8 years old. A back injury prevented him from pursuing a bowling-career, but gave him the opportunity to concentrate on his batting. He made his debut at the age of 23 and played for the Netherlands for 9 years. He was a strong performer in important matches.
van Noortwijk holds the record for the highest individual score for the Netherlands in a One Day International, having scored an unbeaten 134 against Namibia at the 2003 World Cup.
Currently, he is an organizational trainer/coach, getting the best out of other people and help them to perform better.
