Sanne Martha van der Star (Alkemade, February 21, 1986) is a Dutch speed skater who is specialised in the short distances, over 500 and 1000 metres.
In December 2005 Van der Star tried to qualify herself for the 2006 Winter Olympics in Turin over 500 metres.
As she was not among the nominated skaters for the distance a top-2 ranking was requested by the Dutch Speed Skating Association to qualify.
Eventually Van der Star ended up on the third position behind Marianne Timmer and Annette Gerritsen.
As the Dutch had four possible entries in the Olympics at this distance it was said that Van der Star had to show she was capable of getting high rankings in international races and it was requested that she would finish among the best 16 over 500 metres during the World Sprint Championships in 2006.
