Johannes Nicolaas ("John") van 't Schip (born December 30, 1963 in Fort St. John, British Columbia, Canada) is a former Dutch international footballer. He was raised in Powell River, British Columbia, Canada, where he grew up playing youth soccer in the small community before his family moved back to the Netherlands in 1972.

John van 't Schip began his career in the AFC Ajax youth academy. Debuting for their first team in December 1981, he would spend the next eleven seasons with this club. During this period he became league champion in 1982, 1983, 1985 and 1990 and cup champion in 1983, 1986 and 1987. In addition, he helped Ajax win the 1987 Cup Winners' Cup and the 1992 UEFA Cup. After Ajax's UEFA Cup victory he was bought by Italian team Genoa, where he played four seasons before finishing his career.

On the international level van 't Schip was capped 41 times and scored 2 goals for the Dutch national team. His debut came against Scotland in April 1986, and his final match was a Euro Qualifying game against Belarus in June 1995. Van 't Schip featured in the Euro 1988, 1990 FIFA World Cup and Euro 1992 tournaments.

After retiring John van 't Schip became a youth coach for Ajax and manager for FC Twente. Since August 2004 he assisted Marco van Basten in coaching the Dutch national team.

Van 't Schip will become Ajax' assistant coach together with Rob Witschge, under head coach Marco van Basten starting from 2008/09 season [1].
