Erik Tammer (born 29 June 1969) is a Dutch former professional footballer who played as a striker. He is the current co-owner of USL League Two club Dayton Dutch Lions.
Playing career
Tammer played youth football with VV de Meeuwen, DSO/Ultrajectum, UVV and Ajax. He experienced his senior breakthrough at Excelsior, where he became the 1991–92 Eerste Divisie top goalscorer, and subsequently was mostly known for his stint with Heerenveen. There, he reached promotion to the Eredivisie and during the same season reached the KNVB Cup final, which was eventually lost to his former club Ajax.
Tammer also experienced success at Go Ahead Eagles, and almost made a move to Spanish club Osasuna. The transfer did not go through in the end, as representatives of Osasuna believed that Tammer had made negative comments about the club. Tammer ended his professional career as a forward in 2001 after 322 games and 154 goals. After this, he continued playing at amateur level, where he retired as part of HBS Craeyenhout in 2010, where he was also an assistant coach in his last season due to injuries.
Retirement
After his career, Tammer founded his own sports management company. In April 2006, he founded a job site for the sports industry with a partner. The purpose of the vacancy bank was to bring former professional athletes and the business community into contact with each other.
In November 2009, Tammer became co-owner of the American association football clubs Dayton Dutch Lions and Houston Dutch Lions. He was also a scout for Heerenveen since 2013. From July 2015, he became a scout for Eredivisie club NEC. Since July 2018, he became a scout for Utrecht.
