Afrikaanderplein was a football ground in Rotterdam, the Netherlands. It was the first home of the professional football club Feyenoord – then known as Wilhelmina (1908–09), HFC (1909), Celeritas (1909–12) and eventually Feijenoord – from its foundation in 1908 until 1917, when the club moved to a new ground at the Kromme Zandweg.[2]
Before the foundation of Feyenoord, fellow Rotterdam club Excelsior played its matches on the Afrikaanderplein in the season 1907–08, after which the club returned to Woudestein.[1]
