Note that this list includes all clubs mentioned in this document (apart
from a few referred to in connection with later events),
including a number of foreign ones, but is not necessarily exhaustive.
The short versions of the names on the left hand side are used in this
document; an additional indication of the home town is only included if
a homonymous club from another town appears in the document as well.
The full names on the right hand side appeared at least once in contemporary
publications but for most clubs other
versions appeared as well: in particular, the words "voetbal" and "football"
as well as "vereeniging" and "club" were often interchanged, sometimes
apparently at random, and while nearly all early Dutch football clubs
originated from an older cricket club, the "cricket" part was not always
included in the name.
Additional information is most welcome.
All clubs in italics were members of the N.V.B. at least at some point during the season.

The season started on a bad note when the annual Algemeene Vergadering
at Musis Sacrum, Velperplein, in Arnhem, on Sep 3, 1899, had to be
cancelled because only twelve clubs had sent representatives, whereas the
regulations required one quarter of the membership (56 clubs at the time) to be
represented. Only two of the thirteen Eerste Klasse clubs (newly promoted
Ajax from Leiden and local side Vitesse) had bothered to attend. The meeting
was eventually held three weeks later at the same venue.
By the time of that second meeting, there had been a somewhat surprising
addition to the membership, when S.O.K. from Medan (on Sumatra) had joined,
apparently on the instigation of Willem Mulier, the first ever N.V.A.B. president,
who had recently become the editor of the "Deli Courant", a local newspaper.
In contrast, long-standing members Victoria from Rotterdam resigned in October.
Victoria had joined the federation in 1890 and had since become the first
Dutch "yoyo" team: they had
been promoted to the Eerste Klasse in 1891, were reprieved from relegation
in 1893 in spite of losing all their league matches but failed to obtain
re-election in 1894, immediately bounced back as Tweede Klasse
champions in 1895 but went down again in 1897 and had finished last in
their Tweede Klasse group in the previous season.
In January 1900 two new regional federations, those of Noord-Brabant and Zeeland, petitioned for official recognition from the N.V.B. and were granted that during the season. Meanwhile, the dominance of new entrants Velocitas in the Tweede Klasse of the southern Afdeeling 4 triggered a suggestion to include the southern champions in the promotion matches for the Eerste Klasse of Afdeeling 1; no action was taken on this, but after the cadets, who represented the Koninklijke Militaire Academie (Royal Military Academy) in Breda, had won the Holdert-beker, the domestic cup tournament, they were eventually admitted to the Eerste Klasse of Afdeeling 1 for the 1900/01 season (by a board decision on Sep 15, 1900, which also promoted U.D.), in spite of opposition from Amsterdam and Haarlem, whose clubs did not relish the journey to Breda.
When it appeared increasingly likely that H.V.V. would win the championship and Velocitas the cup, an article in the Mar 3, 1900 issue of the "Nederlandsche Sport", presumably written by W. Coops, suggested to stage a "Super Cup" match between the two: "Mocht de H.V.V. dan het kampioenschap, Velocitas den beker gewonnen hebben, eene eventueele ontmoeting zou dan zeer belangwekkend zijn, eene waardige apotheose aan het eind van een welbesteed seizoen. Als er tenminste tijd voor gevonden zal kunnen worden, wat wel te hopen, maar lang niet zeker is." The author was decades ahead of his time: the first Dutch "Super Cup" match would be played nearly half a century later (in 1949, between S.V.V. and Quick (Nijmegen), as a one-off; it would still take four more decades for the tournament to be established as a season opener, first in 1991), while the first edition of the English Charity Shield featuring the reigning league champions and F.A. cup winners was that of 1921, between champions Burnley and cup holders Tottenham Hotspur.
The season was closed by a general meeting on Jul 1, 1900 in Utrecht
at "het Haagsche Koffiehuis", where the main item of discussion was
the future organisation of the federation – in particular an
extensive proposal by H.B.S. president Stokvis to decentralise it.
This eventually was firmly rejected (11 votes in favour, 25 against).
Other items on the agenda were not discussed due to the duration of
the above debate; these included changes to the regulations, suggested
by the N.V.B. board, one stipulating that new members would in principle
belong to the Derde Klasse (instead of the Tweede Klasse)
and another introducing a "golden goal" rule for deciding matches at
neutral venues ("Met dien verstande, dat de wedstrijd op onzijdig
terrein een beslissing brengen moet en dus doorgespeeld zal worden tot
een der partijen een punt behaald heeft"). Another new regulation,
warmly supported by the N.V.B. board, had been suggested by H.V.V. and R.A.P.,
both miffed after losing out on gate receipts because of the no shows of
Sparta and H.F.C. towards the end of the season: "Komt een vereeniging
meer dan tweemaal in hetzelfde seizoen niet op, dan wordt ze
onherroepelijk aan het begin van het volgende in een lagere
competitie ingedeeld."
The relevant changes were eventually accepted at the continuation of
the meeting on Sep 9, 1900 at the same venue.

Quick Adm. 3-1 Swift A.
R.A.P. 2-1 E.D.O.
Volharding A. 3-3 Hercules U. [a1et; declared void]
[2x7½ minutes of extra time played; the stipulated second period of 2x7½ minutes
was not played due to darkness; as this was caused by the late arrival of Hercules
(who had made a mistake with their train connection), the replay was not fixtured
for Utrecht (as would normally have been the case after a draw) but at a neutral
venue (Amersfoort, ground of Wilhelmina), contrary to the regulations; after it
had emerged that the ground in Amersfoort would not be available and Volharding
had filed a protest, the venue for the replay was changed to Amsterdam – on the
evening of Nov 10; officially, the original match had not finished and thus was
declared void]
[Nov 12, 1899; Amsterdam]
Volharding A. awd Hercules U. [awarded 5-0, Hercules dns]
[technically this was a repetition of the first match and not a replay; Hercules
declined to travel to Amsterdam after their request to have the match postponed
due to the short notice given (see above) was rejected]

[Velocitas won the cup while playing in the Tweede Klasse; for the cup competition,
they had obtained permission to field four of their members (all at the K.M.A. in
Breda) who did not play for them in the league as they represented teams from the
Eerste Klasse (De Groot (H.B.S.), Gerth van Wijck (Haarlem), Du Cloux (H.F.C.) and
Van Teijn (Hercules)); their cup run, in which they had defeated three clubs from
the Eerste Klasse (H.V.V., Ajax and Sparta) persuaded the N.V.B. to admit them to
the Eerste Klasse in Afdeeling 1 for the 1900/01 season]
Afdeeling 1 | Afdeeling 2 | Afdeeling 3 | Afdeeling 4
Afdeeling 1 (Noord- en Zuid-Holland)
NB: for this season the N.V.B. board came up with a complicated construction; first,
six clubs (relegated side Rapiditas and the top-three of both groups (bar Ajax,
who had been promoted) in the previous season) were identified as the strongest
and placed in the "higher" 2e Klasse A;
the remaining clubs were distributed over the "lower" 2e Klasse B and C, with a
promotion/relegation system between the two levels (the winners of the groups B
and C were to play off against each other for the right to challenge the bottom
team of group A), meaning groups B and C effectively formed the third level;
however, for the current 1899/00 season (and only for that season), the winners
of that play-off between the winners of groups B and C in addition were to play
the champions of group A for the overall Tweede Klasse title in Afdeeling 1 and
the right to play the bottom finishers in the Eerste Klasse in the Test Matches.

Brab. V.B. (Brabantsche Voetbal Bond)
On Dec 17, 1899, three clubs (G.V.V. (Ginneken, Breda), R.H.B.S. (Tilburg)
and Wilhelmina (Den Bosch)) decided at a meeting in Tilburg to found the
Brabantsche Voetbal Bond, effective as of Jan 1, 1900; a competition was
started immediately. Former N.V.B. members E.V.C. joined within two weeks,
while a club from Oss (presumably A.N.T.O.N.I.) was invited but declined
to enter, considering itself too weak. The B.V.B. obtained recognition by
the N.V.B. in the second week of February 1900.

Although at the beginning of the season another visit of the "English Wanderers"
side was discussed, and Southampton F.C. had planned a tour to the Netherlands
around Christmas, eventually no English football team crossed the Channel.
This may partially have been due to the ill-feeling towards Britain in
the Netherlands caused by the Second Boer War, which had started in October 1899;
Dutch public opinion was firmly on the side of the Boer Republics
Transvaal and Oranje Vrijstaat.
First, early in the season, the Duisburger F.V.
travelled to Arnhem to play Vitesse (whom they had already played home and away at
the beginning of the year); the net profits
of that match, like those of various league matches at the time, such as those
between Ajax and Haarlem and
between Sparta and R.A.P. two weeks earlier,
were dedicated to support the Boer cause in Transvaal.

In October, Katendrecht intended to host the "Dresden Footballclub" (it
is not certain to which of the existing football clubs in Dresden this
referred, possibly the Neuer Dresdner F.C. founded in 1893) but that
never happened; in January, H.V.V. received an invitation from Slavia to visit
them in Prague but the negotiations on that did not lead to a match either.

Three weeks later, on Easter Sunday, Antwerp F.C., who had finished as
runners-up in the Eerste Divisie A in Belgium after losing a

fielding the Potts brothers.

Far more importantly, that same Easter Sunday saw the start of the first ever
major international club tournament, held in Brussels over the Easter days for
the Coupe Van der Straeten Ponthoz.
Two Dutch clubs, 1898/99 champions R.A.P and H.V.V., who had already secured
the title in the Eerste Klasse in Afdeeling 1 but were still to
play Victoria of Wageningen, champions of Afdeeling 2, for the overall
title, entered the tournament and met in the final, H.V.V. after easily
defeating hosts Léopold C.B. and the second side of Racing C.B., R.A.P. after
narrowly eliminating the champions of both Belgium (Racing C.B.) and
Switzerland (Grasshopper Club). In the all-Dutch final, R.A.P. prevailed.
