Darron John Reekers (born 26 May 1973) is a New Zealand former cricketer who played for the Netherlands national cricket team. He played as a right-handed batsman and a right-arm medium pace bowler.[1]
Reekers was born at Christchurch in 1973 and educated at St Thomas of Canterbury College in the city.[2] He played age-group cricket for Canterbury from the 1991–92 season before making his senior debut for the provincial side in a December 1994 List A match against Auckland. He played for the side eight times during 1994–95 and twice the following season, before moving to Otago for a single season in 1997–98, making 10 List A and three first-class appearances, the only domestic first-class matches of his career.[3]
After returning to play for Canterbury from the 1999–2000 season, Reekers first played for the Netherlands national cricket team against Norfolk in the C&G Trophy on 29 August 2001. He did not become eligible to represent them in international competition until 2004, when he played in the 2004 ICC Six Nations Challenge. He went on to make his One Day International (ODI) debut for the side in 2006 and played 19 ODIs and six Twenty20 Internationals for the side, his final appearance coming in 2009. He played for Quick Haag in the Dutch Topklaase league from 1998 to 2009, before retiring at the end of the 2009 season and returning to New Zealand.[4]
