The 2014 KNVB Cup final was Zwolle against Ajax.

The club that won it had only existed under that name for two years. PEC Zwolle went bankrupt in March 1990, and what carried on was a new legal entity called FC Zwolle. The old name came back on 14 April 2012, after promotion to the Eredivisie was secured — the third Eerste Divisie title in the club's record, following 1977/78 and 2001/02.

Before the bankruptcy there was a longer sequence of joins and renames. PEC was formed on 12 June 1910 when Prins Hendrik, founded in 1906, merged with Ende Desespereert Nimmer, founded in 1904; the combined name took a word from each. Zwolsche Boys came in during 1969. The name was shortened to PEC Zwolle in 1971, then amended to PEC Zwolle '82 when money ran short.

Home is the MAC³PARK Stadion, opened on 29 August 2009 and holding 14,000. It replaced the Oosterenkstadion, which the club used from 1934 until 2007.
