In 1980 Everse was forced to retire from professional football due to a heavy injury, his final game was in December 1979 against Excelsior.[2]

Everse made his debut for the Netherlands in an April 1975 friendly match against Belgium and he won his second and final cap in May that year against Yugoslavia.[3]

After his player career, he coached several amateur sides before taking charge of FC Zwolle in 1996.

He was given the sack in March 2009 after a highly publicized incident involving the son of a member of the club's board.[6]

On 6 February 2010 SC Heerenveen officials hired Everse as their coach until June 2010, replacing Jan de Jonge.[7] He coached Sparta for a second time during the 2010–2011 season,[8] but left the club in February 2011 due to poor results.[9] In 2015, he managed Dutch Eredivisie side FC Dordrecht, only to quit in March 2016 over a feud with technical director Marco Boogers.[10] He was appointed head coach at BVCB Bergschenhoek in summer 2017.[11] He was succeeded by Gerard van Ruitenburg in summer 2019.[12]
