Original MJ Sports football shirt HFC Haarlem 2004/05

Haarlemsche Football Club Haarlem was a Dutch football club. The club was originally founded on October 1, 1889 and played in blue shirts, red shorts and blue socks. Home games were played in the Haarlem Stadium. Haarlem was traditionally known for its youth training and scouting.

HFC Haarlem was successful from the first years of the 20th century. The KNVB Cup was won in 1902 and 1912. But the greatest success took place in 1946, when the club won the national championship, partly thanks to the legendary Kick Smit.

In the 21st century, Haarlem always had little money and there was no need to rely on public funds. Bankruptcy was threatened from November 2009, which became reality two months later. This meant that the club ceased as a professional club after 120 years. In March 2010, an amateur association was founded under the name "Nieuw HFC Haarlem", with the aim of competing in amateur football from the 2010/2011 season. On April 26, 2010 it was announced that the association would continue as Haarlem-Kennemerland after a merger with HFC Kennemerland.
