The club was founded on October 22, 1930, and has played exclusively at amateur level in all its history.

After being relegated in 2012–13 to the Hoofdklasse, they returned to the Topklasse by winning the Saturday C title the next season.

In the 2021–22 season, Genemuiden qualified for the promotion playoffs, but lost 3–2 on aggregate to SC Feyenoord in the first round.

In the 2023–24 season, their first in the Derde Divisie, Genemuiden qualified for the Tweede Divisie promotion playoffs. They defeated SV TEC 5–2 on aggregate in the first round, before advancing past Blauw Geel '38 on penalties in the second round. However, in the promotion final, Genemuiden lost 6–1 on aggregate to Excelsior Maassluis, and remained in the Derde Divisie.[2]
