About ASC De Volewijckers

ASC De Volewijckers was a historic football club from Amsterdam-Noord in the Netherlands, founded in 1920. The club developed quickly within Dutch football and became especially popular among the working-class communities in the northern part of Amsterdam. De Volewijckers played in green-and-black colours and built a reputation for passionate football and strong local support. During the 1930s and 1940s, the club established itself as one of the strongest teams in Dutch football.

The greatest achievement in the club’s history came in the 1943–44 season, when De Volewijckers won the Dutch national championship. This success made the club one of the top teams in the country during the final years of World War II. The team was known for its attacking style and talented players, and it regularly competed at a high level during the amateur era. De Volewijckers also contributed several players to the Netherlands national team and became an important part of Amsterdam’s football culture alongside clubs such as Ajax and DWS.

After the introduction of professional football, the club gradually declined and struggled to remain competitive at the highest level. In 1972, the professional branch merged with DWS and Blauw-Wit to form FC Amsterdam, ending De Volewijckers’ existence as an independent professional club. The amateur section continued under its historic name, preserving the club’s traditions and legacy. Today, De Volewijckers is remembered mainly for its national championship and its role in the football history of Amsterdam and Dutch football overall.
