History

For all of the club's history it has played in the amateur leagues of Dutch football, with their highest finish being sixth in the Tweede Klasse in the 2012/2013 season and their lowest being 9th in the Zesde Klasse in the 1999/2000 season. The club first started out in the Overwhere Polder and moved to their second ground ten years later. In 1952 the club had to move due to an auction house being built on top of their playing ground, they played their games at the same ground as Purmersteijn until 1954 when they found a new ground to play their home games at. In 1970 the club had to move once more due to the ground being too small for its increasing member size, they found a new home in the Koog where 80 club members banded together to make a new clubhouse. They moved to the new ground in 1972, which was opened by the then councillor of Education and Sport Affairs. In 1998 the municipality asked the club to move, to which they agreed as the grounds were due to heavy renovations. On June 9, 2001, the new grounds were opened, which now also had a women's changing room to accommodate the ever growing numbers of female members, and they have since played their games in the suburb of Weidevenne.
