The two league titles that sit at the top of the club's record came in wartime, in 1942 and 1943, back to back. What followed instead was a habit of winning at the level below: the Eerste Divisie in 1957, then again in 1986 and 2003, and most recently in 2026.

Between those, two KNVB beker wins, in 1968 and 1975. The final that tends to get remembered in The Hague is one they lost: 1987, when Marco van Basten scored both goals for Ajax.

The name has moved around more than most. A 1971 merger with Holland Sport produced FC Den Haag . In 1996 another merger brought back the older initials, and it has been ADO Den Haag since.

Yellow and green on the shirts.

All of it started in a café. On 1 February 1905, in Het Hof van Berlijn — the building still stands, as a bar called De Paap — a group settled on the name Alles Door Oefening : everything through practice. The three initials have survived every merger since.
