In 2013, Niewenhoorn started a Saturday squad and in 2014 it dropped its Sunday squad. In 2022, Nieuwenhoorn ended runner-up during the Eerste Klasse season.[2] It promoted to the Vierde Klasse after heavy clashes between supporters in the decisive playoff game against WHC Wezep.[3] The decisive penalties were taken after the supporters had been dispersed by the police.[3]
