About Quick Den Haag

Quick Den Haag is a historic football and cricket club from The Hague in the Netherlands, founded in 1896. It is one of the oldest sports clubs in the country and originally developed as a multi-sport association combining both football and cricket. In its early years, Quick quickly became an important part of Dutch football development and was among the pioneering clubs in the sport’s amateur era. The club built a strong local identity and became well known in The Hague’s sporting culture.

The club’s greatest success came in the early 20th century, when it competed at the highest national level. Quick won the Dutch national championship in the 1907–08 season, marking its peak achievement in football. It also enjoyed remarkable success in the KNVB Cup, winning multiple editions between 1909 and 1916, which established the club as one of the strongest teams in Dutch football during that period. Several of its players also represented the Netherlands national team, further highlighting its importance in the early development of Dutch football.

In later decades, Quick Den Haag gradually moved away from the top level of Dutch football as professionalism and competition increased. The club continued to exist mainly as an amateur side, focusing on maintaining its traditions in both football and cricket. Today, Quick competes in the lower divisions, but it remains highly respected for its long history and its contribution to the foundations of Dutch football, especially in The Hague region.
