Founded on 1 June 1960, by Surinamese immigrants in the Dutch Capital Amsterdam, Sranang means Suriname in the Sranan Tongo language, and the club is known to be mostly composed of players from the Surinamese community of Amsterdam. The club started the 2013–14 season fielding a Saturday team in the Derde Klasse, and a Sunday team playing in the Vijfde Klasse of the KNVB district West-I. The Sunday first team however withdrew from the competition after only seven matches played.[2]
