Ted van de Pavert(born 6 January 1992) is a Dutch former professional footballer who played as a centre-back, known mostly for his tenure with De Graafschap.

Van de Pavert made his professional debut for De Graafschap in 2010, quickly cementing his role as a reliable defender. Over the course of ten seasons spanning the Eerste Divisie, Eredivisie, and KNVB Cup from 2010 to 2022, he amassed 273 official appearances for the club, scoring 14 goals. His tenure was briefly interrupted by short spells with PEC Zwolle and NEC. In 2023, he drew the curtains on his career after a single season with Roda JC.

During his career, he earned a solitary cap for the Netherlands U20 in 2013.

After the one season in Zwolle, Van de Pavert was sent on a one-season loan to NEC competing in the second-tier Eerste Divisie. The club also negotiated an option to buy. He appeared in the starting lineup on the first matchday of the season against Almere City. On 25 October 2017, Van de Pavert scored his first goal for NEC in a game against Jong PSV which ended in a 3–3 draw.
