The Dutch Sportsman and Sportswoman of the Year are chosen annually by Dutch athletes from a shortlist compiled by sports journalists. The elections are organized by the Dutch Olympic Committee.

All the winners receive a Jaap Eden Award to remember their title.[1] The prize for this achievement is a statuette created by painter and sculptor Jits Bakker (born 1937) from Bilthoven and is named after Jaap Eden.[1]

Since 1968, a Sport Team of the Year is chosen.[2]
