When the Dutch women's professional league (Eredivisie) was launched in 2007–08, Roelvink joined FC Twente. [4] In her first season at the club she won the Dutch Cup. [3] [5] After three seasons at the club and looking to play in a stronger league, she decided to leave and move to the German Bundesliga. During her three seasons at FC Twente she played a total (in all competitions) of 71 official matches and scored 2 goals. [6]

Ahead of the 2010–11 season, she joined German club FCR 2001 Duisburg, signing a contract for one year. [7] On 5 August 2010, she made her debut in the UEFA Women's Champions League against Slovan Bratislava. [8] She was quickly establishing herself at the team's defence but on 5 September 2010, during the fourth match of the Bundesliga season's campaign against FC Bayern Munich, in a ball dispute duel with Petra Wimbersky, she sustained an anterior cruciate ligament injury tear damaging her meniscus and interior ligaments, ruling her out for a minimum of half a year and she didn't feature for the club for the rest of the season. [1] [9]

In 2011, after recovering from her knee injury and looking to have more opportunities to play to gain match practice, [1] she joined FF USV Jena, following former Duisburg coach Martina Voss-Tecklenburg, where she signed a one-year contract. [10] She played 25 matches (22 league and 3 cup) at the club during the 2011–12 season. [9]

In 2012 she left FF USV Jena to join FSV Gütersloh 2009. [11] [12] She played 19 matches at the club (18 league and 1 cup) during the 2012–13 season. [9]

On 30 May 2013, Roelvink returned to the Netherlands and signed for BeNe League club PSV/FC Eindhoven. [13] [14] She played 22 league matches for the club at the 2012–13 season. [15]

On 11 June 2014, her retirement was announced as she was looking to start a professional career outside of football. [16]

International career

Roelvink made her senior national team debut on 6 June 2010, a 2–0 win over Belgium in Loenhout, Wuustwezel. [2] [17] [18]

On 29 June 2013 she played her 7th match for the national team, a 3–1 win over Australia in Velsen-Zuid. [17] In the following days national team coach Roger Reijners selected Roelvink in the Netherlands squad for the UEFA Women's Euro 2013 in Sweden. [19] She did not appear at the tournament, as established right back Dyanne Bito was selected for all three games.
