A player of NAC, Ter Beek made one appearance for the Netherlands on 2 June 1924 against Ireland. The setting in which he made his international debut was bleak, as game was played on a practice pitch in front of only a few spectators. Journalists wrote about the match: "Rarely has the national team played so lazily, so listlessly". For Ter Beek, it proved to be the end of an international career, as the cap was his only one.[3]
Ter Beek died on 5 September 1934, aged 33.[4]
