Kay Smits

Kay Kirsten Evert Smits (born 31 March 1997) is a Dutch handball player for SG Flensburg-Handewitt and the Dutch national team.

He is the first ever men's player of the Netherlands to win the EHF Champions League, Europe's most important club competition with SC Magdeburg in 2022/2023.

He represented the Netherlands at the 2022 and 2020 European Men's Handball Championship and the 2023 World Men's Handball Championship. Smits had to withdraw for the 2024 EHF Euro's due to inflammation of his heart muscle.
