Career
Lefebvre made his first-class debut with Somerset against Oxford University in 1990, then took 5/30 on his first County Championship appearance the following week. Later that year he claimed 7/15 (at the time the equal fifth-best return in List A cricket) in Somerset"s record 346-run victory against Devon in the National Westminster Trophy. Lefebvre was signed by Glamorgan for 1993 and proved particularly effective in one-day cricket where his consistent accuracy made him difficult for batsmen to dominate, as evidenced by a superb bowling analysis of 11-5-13-2 in the quarter-final of the National Westminster Trophy game against Worcestershire.
Lefebvre"s bowling was a significant factor in Glamorgan"s Sunday League triumph in 1993.
A bad groin injury in 1995 forced Lefebvre to retire from professional cricket, but he continued to appear for his country in the Interstate Commerce Commission Trophy, a competition for which he holds several career records: most appearances (43), most wickets taken (71 at just 1164) and most catches by an outfielder (26). He also appeared for the Netherlands at full One Day International level in the 1996 and 2003 World Cups and in the 2002/03 Champions Trophy, captaining the Dutch team from 1999 onwards.
Lefebvre retired from playing after the 2003 World Cup, and is now employed as the Dutch national youth coach.
