XerxesDZB

XerxesDZB, an amateur football club from Rotterdam, South Holland, the Netherlands, was founded in 2000 following the merger between RFC Xerxes and DZB Zevenkamp. The club has a rich history, particularly through the achievements of Xerxes, originally founded in 1904. Xerxes played professional football between 1954 and 1967, with highlights including promotion to the Eredivisie and a tenth-place finish at the highest level of Dutch football. After financial difficulties, the professional branch merged with DHC’66 and later with DZB Zevenkamp, resulting in the formation of XerxesDZB.

In 2010, the XerxesDZB sports park was renovated and renamed after the legendary footballer Faas Wilkes. With a new clubhouse, additional changing rooms, and an artificial turf field, Sportpark Faas Wilkes provides modern facilities for the club and its supporters.
