Voetbalvereniging Spijkenisse is a football club from Spijkenisse, Netherlands. In 2017–18, VV Spijkenisse played its sole season in the Saturday Derde Divisie.[1] Since 2018, it plays in the Hoofdklasse.

History[]

VV Spijkenisse became champions of the Saturday amateurs in 1975 and then became overall amateur champion by beating the Sunday champion VV Emmen 2–4 away and 1–0 at home.[2] In 2014, Spijkenisse won the championship of the Eerste Klasse C, which meant that the club forced promotion to the Hoofdklasse for the first time since the 2002–03 season.[3] In the 2014–15 season, they won a period title and alongside Quick Boys and RVVH, they competed for play-offs for promotion to the Topklasse, but this was not realised. In the 2016–17 season, Spijkenisse became champion of the Dutch Hoofdklasse and promoted to the Derde Divisie.[4] A year later, however, they lost in the relegation play-offs to HSV Hoek, which meant that the club suffered relegation to the Hoofdklasse.[5]

Former players[]

The club is noted for its youth academy, having trained players such as George Boateng, Ellery Cairo, Romano Denneboom and Miquel Nelom.[6][7][8]
