About the team
The team
Enschede United is a team with ambition. They play in division VIII.242 in the Netherlands. Enschede United plays at the Olympic Stadium of Enschede (21.000). The club strives for a selection with a regional character. Most players are from the Youthsquad, or from an other Dutch team. Only when it's really necessary, United buys foreign players.
Current season
Season 21 The season hasn't started yet.
History
Season 15
Enschede United was establisht on june the 9th 2005 and started in division XI.212 in Nederland. Before this date, two matches in this competition where already played (and both where lost), but thanks to the Romanian coach Niculae Modoran, United won 11 of the remaining 12 matches. So Enschede won the championship at their debut.
Season 16
This season started with a defeat, against the also promoted De Stofkappen. Niculae Modoran though kept his nerves and that of the team, so of the following 13 matches, 12 where won and 1 ended in a draw. With a victory against De Stofkappen, the championship was reached on the last day.
Season 17
This season was the best season ever! The 2-2 draw against FC Gnurft was the only loss of points in this competition. The power of Enschede was emphasized by the fact that there where only 6 goals scored against this team. The Olympic Stadium of Enschede was the new ground of the club, because the old Enschede Arena turned out to be to small.
Season 18
For this season a new coach has been appointed. The Romanian coach Niculae Modoran has been replaced by his Swiss colleague Morgan Petrie. For the first time in their history United played for the KNVB Beker (the Dutch Cup). United lost with 2-3 against Goodfellaz (a team in division V). This league was a very strong one. In the first match the later (and right) champion FC M'non was defeated. After that a lot of points where thrown away. United ended up in the third place, behind angstgegner FC Riko. Reasons for this poor season are the defensive 5-4-1 system, good tactics of the opponents and just bad luck.
Season 19
In the KNVB Beker United was defeated by Holthe with 0-1. Big teams in the league like GP_Manager and FC Riko (2x) where beaten, but United lost against the relatively small radiokaka and outsider Jimmy-Boys. United ended as runner-up behind GP_Manager.
Season 20
This season the championship of division VIII.242 was finaly won. The season started bad, when United lost in the first round of the cup by FC Smurfendorp with 1-3.
