Playing career

Van Kruijssen spent his youth at amateur sides, UNA and DVS, but transferred to the Willem II youth team as a teenager. He did not break through to the first team, resulting in a transfer to FC Eindhoven together with fellow Willem II player, Ratko Vansimpsen. Van Kruijssen made his first team debut on 27 August 2010, replacing Vansimpsen 83 minutes into a 30 victory over Fortuna Sittard at Jan Louwers Stadion. [1]

In 2013, van Kruijssen was sent on a summer loan to the USL Premier Development League team, Houston Dutch Lions. He made his debut on 11 May 2013 against Laredo Heat where he scored. After this he would no longer get a professional contract and played in Belgium for Zwarte Leeuw, Hoogstraten VV and Berchem Sport. He moved to Londerzeel ahead of the 2020–21 season. [2]

The Eerste Divisie 2009–10 was the 54th season of the Eerste Divisie since its establishment in 1956. The previous year's winners were VVV-Venlo; they, with runner-up RKC Waalwijk, after a promotion/relegation playoff win over De Graafschap, were promoted to the Eredivisie. Twenty teams took part: eighteen from the 2008–2009 season and relegated teams FC Volendam and De Graafschap. The season's champion was promoted to the Eredivisie, while eight other teams, the second- through fifth-place finishers and period winners, faced the Eredivisie's sixteenth- and seventeenth-place finishers in promotion/relegation playoffs. For the first time since 1971, Eerste Divisie clubs also faced relegation; the last- and second-to-last-place teams were relegated to the new Topklasse, in which the best teams from Dutch amateur football play. The 2009–10 Eerste Divisie was sponsored by the Belgian beer brand Jupiler and so the official name of the league was Jupiler League.
