NETHERLANDS: 's-Gravenzandse VV (1965-2010) / 's-Gravenzandse SV (1965-2010) / FC 's-Gravenzande (2010-)

Juliana-Sportpark, 's-Gravenzande (FC 's-Gravenzande, formerly 's-Gravenzandse VV / 's-Gravenzandse SV)

Netherlands, province: South-Holland = Zuid-Holland

31 V 2011 / FC 's-Gravenzande - VVA '71 0-1 / Zaterdag 1e klasse, promotion play-off (= NL level 5)

Note - FC 's-Gravenzande is the result of a 2010 merger of 's-Gravenzandse VV (founded in 1912, originally a Sunday club, but moving first team football to Saturdays in 1966) and 's-Gravenzandse SV (a purely Saturday club, founded in 1936), who had shared the Juliana-Sportpark since the park had been inaugurated in 1965. The covered stand dates back to that same year. In the first decade after the turn of the century, a new clubhouse and uncovered stand were added to the set-up. Before the move to the Juliana-Sportpark, 's-Gravenzandse SV had played its football at Terrein Pannenbuurt in 's-Gravenzande proper, while 's-Gravenzandse VV had its home ground just across the municipal borders in Hook of Holland to circumvent the obligatory Sunday rest in the predominantly Protestant village.

NETHERLANDS: SV DVS '33

Gemeentelijk Sportpark - Sportlaan, Ermelo (SV DVS '33 = Door Vereniging Sterk)

Netherlands, province: Guelders

24 V 2011 / SV DVS '33 - SV DZC '68 3-0 / Zaterdag Hoofdklasse-1e klasse promotion/relegation play-off (NL levels 4 & 5)

Note: Founded in 1933 as a merger of two smaller clubs from Ermelo, EFC and Ajax, SV DVS '33 (named SV Ermelo for two seasons, 1956-58) initially made use of both older clubs' grounds - Ajax' Terrein Knevel being the main ground and EFC's pitch at Hamburgerweg remaining in use for training purposes. After leaving Terrein Knevel in 1945, the club successively played at Sonneheerdt (1945-±1946), Terrein Loedeman - Oude Nijkerkerweg (±1946-51), Terrein Jan Hamstra - Oude Nijkerkerweg (1951-62), before settling down at their current ground - then situated at Hamburgerweg, nowadays at Sportlaan - in 1962. In 1983, a first main stand (the one visible in the photos below) was constructed, offering 370 spectators a covered seat. In 2012, this stand was replaced by a new, much bigger successor. The old stand was sold to vv Staphorst, where it was rebuilt at Sportpark Het Noorderslag.
