Jordy Buijs (born December 28, 1988 in Ridderkerk) is a Dutch footballer who currently plays as a central defender for De Graafschap on loan from Feyenoord Rotterdam. He can also play at the right back position and is not related to Feyenoord player Danny Buijs.

Buijs is a player with a great ability to read the game and who is steady in passing. He joined Feyenoord's youth squad in 1995 and is seen as a hot prospect for the future. He participated with the Netherlands under 17 squad at the 2005 under 17 European Championships, where the Dutch reached the final. Buijs provided the assist for the winning goal in the semi final against Italy. He also took part with the same team at the Under 17 World Championships in Peru where they became third. Dutch under 17 coach Ruud Kaiser said Jordy Buijs is a winners type, who is good in one on one clashes, who has a great heading ability and who is always determined to win.

In July 2007 Buijs became officially part of Feyenoord's first team managed by Bert van Marwijk. He was awarded squad number 23 and showed up at Feyenoord's first training for the 2007-08 season, which was visited by a record number of 20,000 fans. But, after having no chances on the first team, he was loaned to De Graafschap for a half-year period, in January 30, 2008.
