Ronald ("Ron") Ferdinand Zwerver (born June 6, 1967 in Amsterdam, Noord-Holland) is a retired volleyball player from the Netherlands, who represented his native country in three consecutive Summer Olympics, starting in 1988 in Seoul, South Korea. He was one of the dominant forces in Dutch volleyball in the 1990s.

After having won the silver medal under coach Arie Selinger in 1992 (Barcelona) Zwerver's finest hour came in 1996, when he won the gold medal in Atlanta, Georgia with the Dutch Men's National Team by defeating archrivals Italy in the final (3-2). He is the current coach of Nesselande, which is a team that plays in the highest Dutch league.
