History

edit

The club was founded on 26 November 1990 in the Leidsche Rijn neighborhood of Utrecht. The home matches are played on Sportpark Papendorp, in the Industry park of the same name. The standard Sunday team were promoted to the Topklasse ahead of the 2015–16 season, having won the Hoofdklasse A the previous season. The 2010–11 season marked the last time the Saturday team played in the standard competition, competing in the Vijfde Klasse (West-1, 5C). Since the 2017–18 season the Saturday team (former Sunday team) compete in the Derde Divisie (fourth tier) of Dutch national football.

In 2018 the first squad was ejected from the Hoofdklasse after continuing problems staging a proper team.[1] In October 2019 a referee and a game official in a game of the second squad were threatened, leading to the cancellation of Papendorp's KNVB participation.[2] In an appeal, the court decided that the KNVB's decision was reasonable.[2]
