HFC Haarlem was a Dutch football club from the city of Haarlem, established in 1889 and dissolved in 2010. The club won the Dutch national title in 1946 and reached five Cup finals, winning in 1902 and 1912. Haarlem reached the second round of the 1982–83 UEFA Cup, losing to Spartak Moscow of the Soviet Union.
Haarlem was declared bankrupt on January 25, 2010, and excluded from professional football with immediate effect. Haarlem played its last professional match on January 22, 2010, a 3-0 away loss to Excelsior.
In April 2010, three months after its exclusion from professional football, HFC Haarlem completed a fusion with amateur Tweede Klasse club HFC Kennemerland, the new club being named Haarlem Kennemerland. The team played in Tweede Klasse A Saturday Division, West District I in its debut season.[1][2]

History
The club was founded on October 1, 1889. Haarlem won the Dutch national title in 1946 and reached five Dutch cup finals, winning in 1902 and 1912 and losing in 1911, 1914 and 1950. Haarlem won the title in the Eerste Divisie in 1972, 1976 and 1981. In 1982, HFC Haarlem, featuring a young Ruud Gullit, qualified for UEFA Cup football, in which they were eliminated by Spartak Moscow in the second round (the match hosted by Spartak is known in Russia because of the Luzhniki disaster that occurred in the stadium after the game). In 1990, Haarlem was relegated to the Eerste Divisie again, in which they played until January 25, 2010.
Ajax-partnership
On August 10, 2009, Haarlem and AFC Ajax announced a partnership.[3] They decided Ajax would loan 1 to 4 players to Haarlem every season, it also meant Ajax would get a say in Haarlem-transfers, and would deploy employees to Haarlem, Cock Jol, brother of Martin Jol supervised the Ajax-Haarlem project.
Bankruptcy
On January 25, 2010, however, Haarlem was declared bankrupt and was thus according to Dutch league rules excluded from competition, with all its previous results in the ongoing competition expunged.[4] The club in its current form ceased to exist, with all its players (and staff) becoming free agents.
In February 2010, HFC Haarlem was reinstated as a new amateur club, who also took the naming and logo rights from the old version.[5] This club then started talks for a potential merger with amateur Tweede Klasse Haarlem-based side HFC Kennemerland,[6] which was announced to have been completed on April 27; the new club will be called Haarlem Kennemerland, and will play home games at Haarlem Stadion, thus continuing the legacy of the old HFC Haarlem.[1][2]
