Career

Player

Born in Middelburg, Veenstra began his career at amateur side DVV Duiven. He later joined RCS Middelburg where he was scouted by top flight club NAC Breda.[1] Veenstra played there five years in the youth.[2]

He made his debut in professional football, being part of the NAC Breda squad in the 2006–07 season.[3] Veenstra was loaned out to SBV Excelsior for the 2008–09 season,[4] and in January 2009 he went to HFC Haarlem on loan from NAC Breda.[5]

In June 2010, Veenstra returned to amateur football and joined Topklasse side, HSV Hoek.[6] In May 2011, it was announced he would join VV Kloetinge.[7] He played for Kloetinge until 2013.

Manager

In 2015, Veenstra became the assistant manager of Zeelandia's first squad. Next season he was its manager Zeelandia. He then coached VV Goes for two seasons.

In 2019, he signed as manager of Tweede Divisie-side ASWH. Before he started coaching, the club had made it against all odds into the Tweede Divisie. His first season at ASWH was challenging as the club did not have the funds for semiprofessional football. When the season ended early because of coronavirus, ASWH was dead-last yet stayed in the Tweede because all relegations had been cancelled.
