Voetbal Vereniging Katwijk (Dutch pronunciation: [ˈkɑtʋɛik] ) is a Dutch association football club based in the town of Katwijk, South Holland. Founded in 1939, the team competes in the Tweede Divisie, the third tier of the Dutch football league system. Katwijk plays its home games at Sportpark De Krom, which has a capacity of 6,000.
Katwijk is one of the most successful amateur football clubs in the Netherlands in recent decades, winning seven championships of the top amateur division of the Netherlands between 1993 and 2023.
History
Katwijk have become Dutch amateur champions, by winning the overall Topklasse title in 2012–13. As such, they were invited to play in the Dutch Eerste Divisie but, after some consideration, the club opted to stay in the Topklasse, claiming the organisation was not yet ready to compete in the Eerste Divisie. Topklasse runners-up Achilles '29 were ultimately admitted in their place instead.
In the following season, Katwijk failed to repeat its success, and ended the season with being relegated to the Hoofdklasse.
Arch rival is Quick Boys, from the same town.
