NETHERLANDS: vv Veendam 1894 (1974-2020)

Sportpark De Langeleegte Noord, Veendam (formerly vv Veendam 1894)

Netherlands, province: Groningen

13 XI 2016 / Veendam 1894 - Wildervank 1-5 / District North, Sunday League 3B (= NL level 8)

Note 1: vv Veendam 1894 saw the daylight in 1974 as the non-league branch of the former SC Veendam, which went bankrupt in 2013 and used to play in the stadium next to vv Veendam 1894's ground. In 2020, vv Veendam 1894 abandoned their main pitch, which was demolished and used to build an extension to the next-door secondary school. The club moved their first team football to Stadion De Langeleegte, meanwhile renamed Henk Nienhuis Stadion aan de Langeleegte.

Note 2: photo 2 dates back to a non-matchday visit in June 2014; photo 3 was taken in September 2010.
