Playing career

Sibum began playing football at SV Twedo in his hometown Nieuw-Amsterdam, Drenthe.{{cite news |last1=Dijkhuizen |first1=Niels |title=Bas Sibum zet punt achter betaald voetballoopbaan |url=https://www.rtvdrenthe.nl/nieuws/109059/bas-sibum-zet-punt-achter-betaald-voetballoopbaan |access-date=16 June 2024 |work=RTV Drenthe |date=13 May 2016 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190926194051/https://www.rtvdrenthe.nl/nieuws/109059/bas-sibum-zet-punt-achter-betaald-voetballoopbaan |archive-date=26 September 2019 |language=nl}} He was scouted by the local professional club, Emmen, where he made his professional debut in the second-tier Eerste Divisie in the 2000–01 season. On 7 April 2001, he replaced Alami Ahannach in the 73rd minute of a 2–0 league loss to Heracles Almelo to make his professional debut.{{cite web |title=Heracles Almelo – BV Emmen 2:0 (Eerste Divisie 2000/2001, 27.

At the end of the season, Emmen finished second in the table but failed to secure promotion in the play-offs.{{cite web |title=Netherlands 2002/03 |url=https://www.rsssf.org/tablesn/ned03.html |website=RSSSF |access-date=16 June 2024 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20231206012455/https://www.rsssf.org/tablesn/ned03.html |archive-date=6 December 2023}}

However, under coach Fred Rutten, who preferred a midfield trio of Orlando Engelaar, Otman Bakkal, and Karim El Ahmadi, Sibum found himself relegated to a backup role.{{cite news |last1=Voorde |first1=Leon ten |title=Schaal lonkt voor 32-jarige Tukker El Ahmadi |url=https://www.tubantia.nl/fc-twente/schaal-lonkt-voor-32-jarige-tukker-el-ahmadi~a2d71cd3/ |access-date=16 June 2024 |work=Tubantia |date=4 May 2017 |language=nl}} Consequently, during the winter break, both Niemeyer and Sibum left the club; Niemeyer joined Werder Bremen, while Sibum transferred to Roda JC.{{cite news |title=Bas Sibum naar Roda JC |url=https://www.l1.nl/nieuws/2481513/bas-sibum-naar-roda-jc |access-date=16 June 2024 |work=L1 |date=15 January 2007 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240616081947/https://www.l1.nl/nieuws/2481513/bas-sibum-naar-roda-jc |archive-date=16 June 2024 |language=nl}}
