Henry Timmer is a retired professional goalkeeper from the Netherlands.[2][3]

Career

Timmer was born in the Dutch town of Hoevelaken in 1981.[4][5] Timmer began his professional career in 2002 with NEC Nijmegen and retired with NSC Nijkerk after the 2014 season.[6][7] Prior to this, Timmer spent his youth career with teams DDOV, FC Utrecht, and Vitesse Arnhem. From 2006 to 2008, Timmer played for VVOG.[8][9] Timmer played for Sparta Nijkerk in the 2009–10 KNVB Cup, appearing in the first and second rounds with a defeat of VV Schaesberg in Round 1 and a draw against FC Zwolle in Round 2.[10]

In a 2003 interview, Timmer stated that there has been confusion between himself and another Dutch goalkeeper with the same last name, Henk Timmer.[5] Henry Timmer explained that many of his teammates call him "Henk" as a nickname and that when Henk Timmer was involved in a car accident, Henry Timmer was asked on multiple occasions whether it was him who had been in the accident.[5][lower-alpha 1]

Personal life

Following his retirement from professional football, Timmer became a coach for SC Hoevelaken.[12] In 2019, Timmer modeled for Roots Fashion in Amersfoort.[13]
