Club career
Boerrigter with Ajax
Ajax (first period)
Boerrigter started his career in the youth department of Quick'20. At age twelve he was scouted and recruited by FC Twente, where he played in various youth squads before joining the Academy. While playing for Twente's A1 squad, he impressed scouts from AFC Ajax and in the summer of 2005 he signed a two year contract with the Amsterdam-based club and joined the selection of Jong Ajax. Although he was on the substitutes bench for several games, he was never able to make his full first team debut.
Loan to Haarlem
He was loaned to HFC Haarlem in 2007.[1] He made his professional debut on 2 February 2007, in the home-match against AGOVV Apeldoorn which ended in a 1–1 draw. In this match, he was used as a 70th-minute substitute.[2] He played eight competitive matches during his period in Haarlem, scoring one goal.
Zwolle
After his contract with Ajax expired in 2007, Boerrigter signed a one-year contract with FC Zwolle, with the option for another year. He was a regular starter in Zwolle, and scored 11 goals in 63 league matches.
RKC
He attracted attention from several big clubs in his home country, but he chose to sign with RKC Waalwijk, who had just won promotion to the Eredivisie.[3][4] On 1 August 2009 Boerrigter made his Eredivisie debut in a match against FC Utrecht.[5] Boerrigter soon developed into an important player at RKC, being an integral part of the team that won the 2010–11 Eerste Divisie.
Return to Ajax
In the January transfer window of 2011 Ajax renewed their interest in Boerrigter, making an unsuccessful attempt to purchase him. However in the Summer of 2011 he finally returned to Ajax, signing a three year contract. He received squad number 21 for the 2011–12 season. He made his debut on 30 July 2011 in the 2-1 loss against Twente for the Johan Cruijff Shield, replacing Kolbeinn Sigþórsson in the 66th minute.[6] In his first Eredivisie match for Ajax he scored his first goal for the club, in a 4-1 victory over De Graafschap.[7] He continued his good start for the club with goals against Heerenveen, Vitesse, Dinamo Zagreb & Roda JC.[8][9][10][11]
International career
Boerrigter received his first international call up when he was named in the 23 man squad for the friendlies against Switzerland and Germany on November2011 [12]
