Caesar Herman "Cees" ten Cate (August 20, 1890, in Ngawi – June 9, 1972, in Amsterdam) was a Dutch amateur football player who competed in the 1912 Summer Olympics.[1]

International career

Ten Cate made his debut for the Netherlands in a June 1912 Olympic Games match against Sweden and earned all of his three caps at the tournament,[2] winning a bronze medal. He was only included in the squad because first choice forwards Mannes Francken and Jan Thomee had to pull out.[3]
