Hoitink was born in Enschede, Overijssel, and played her club cricket for KZKC (Klein Zwitserland de Krekels Combinatie) and VOC Rotterdam.[1] Her senior debut for the Netherlands came in March 1999, when she was selected in the squad for an ODI tour of Sri Lanka.[2] The following year, Hoitink was selected for the World Cup in New Zealand, and played in three of a possible seven matches. She had little success, however, scoring only nine runs overall.[3] Hoitink did not appear again at ODI level until August 2006, when the Netherlands toured Ireland.[2] In the second ODI, she opened the batting with Cheraldine Oudolf, and made what was to be her highest ODI score, 18 runs from 35 balls.[4] In July and August 2007, South Africa went on a tour of the Netherlands, playing three ODIs and a Test – the first (and so far only) Test match played by any Dutch team, men or women.[5] Selected in the Test squad, Hoitink scored only a single run across her two innings, and did not bowl.[6] Her final ODIs came the following year, at the 2008 World Cup Qualifier.[2] Hoitink finished with an ODI career batting average of only 6.57.[1]
