Cornelis Cor Wilders (27 June 1916 – 24 January 1998) was a Dutch baseball and association football player.

As a footballer, Wilders played in eight matches for the Netherlands national football team from 1937 to 1946.

Wilders played baseball as a pitcher for Blauw-Wit Amsterdam and for the Netherlands national baseball team, becoming one of only three known athletes to represent the country in both baseball and football (the other two being Joop Odenthal and Henk Schijvenaar). He represented the Netherlands (as a second baseman) at the 1937 World Exhibition Games in Paris, where they took the championship. Wilders was inducted into the Netherlands Baseball Hall of Fame in 1983.
