== History ==
On 8 November 2002 President Cyclops (then still called RonaldN) took a life-changing decision in taking over bankrupt team ''AZ Eindhoven''. He renamed the club after himself en moved it to his hometown city of Haarlem in the Dutch region [[Noord-Holland]] where he had already started to build a small venue for the club's home matches: Cyclops United Arena (which soon was renamed into Open Eye Stadium).
=== First match ===
Two days later Cyclops United played their first ever competition match. At home, in front of 6997 enthusiastic fans, Paap Domineert were held to a 2-2 draw. Coach [[Jordy Weijers]] fielded the following eleven players in a 4-4-2 formation:
* goalkeeper [[Ronald Pronk]] (captain)
* rightback [[Ronald Ritzen]], central defenders [[Willem Kamphuis]] and [[Joop Jehee]] and leftback [[Ben Dijkslag]]
* right winger [[Nu'aim al-Nisaburi]], central midfielders [[Merlijn Nedelkovski]] and [[Bobbie Gillebaard]] and left winger [[Olav Nouel]]
* strikers [[Mitchell Ernes]] and [[Lukas Baas]]
Goals: [[Lukas Bass]] (48') and [[Mitchell Ernes]] (62'). Cyclops United's man of the match: [[Nu'aim al-Nisaburi]]
=== The first seasons: a slow start ===
Cyclops United's first match was in round twelve of Dutch season 6. And with two draws and one loss the club finished as fifth in division V.424. But because there was no sixth division level in the Netherlands yet, the team didn't have to play a qualification match. The following seasons President Cyclops didn't do a lot with his team: no friendly matches were played and and no main skill training was received by his players, who therefore only grew older and got a bit more experienced. No wonder the club relegated to VI.401 in season 7 and didn't play any role for the championship there.
=== The first championships ===
Not until the middle of season 9 (August 2003) did President Cyclops decide to give more of his valuable time to his club. And it immediately paid off: under the inspiring guidance of player/coach [[Nu'aim al-Nisaburi]] all competition matches from week seven on were won, which resulted in Cyclops United winning their first ever title and medal! But still the season was not over. To achieve promotion to V, Cyclops United had to play a qualification match against [[FC MijnTeam]], who had an extremely good goal keeper. But despite that, the Haarlem club scored two goals to make it 2-2 in regular and extra time, so penalties had to decide. Unfortunately, only two CU-players managed to score and promotion had to be postponed.
The next season (10), Cyclops United completely dominated their league, winning the title without any defeats (although they had to come back from 3-0 down to draw 3-3 in their last match) and securing direct promotion to division V!

History

On 8 November 2002 President Cyclops (then still called RonaldN) took a life-changing decision in taking over bankrupt team AZ Eindhoven. He renamed the club after himself en moved it to his hometown city of Haarlem in the Dutch region Noord-Holland where he had already started to build a small venue for the club's home matches: Cyclops United Arena (which soon was renamed into Open Eye Stadium).

First match

Two days later Cyclops United played their first ever competition match. At home, in front of 6997 enthusiastic fans, Paap Domineert were held to a 2-2 draw. Coach Jordy Weijers fielded the following eleven players in a 4-4-2 formation:

Goals: Lukas Bass (48') and Mitchell Ernes (62'). Cyclops United's man of the match: Nu'aim al-Nisaburi

The first seasons: a slow start

Cyclops United's first match was in round twelve of Dutch season 6. And with two draws and one loss the club finished as fifth in division V.424. But because there was no sixth division level in the Netherlands yet, the team didn't have to play a qualification match. The following seasons President Cyclops didn't do a lot with his team: no friendly matches were played and and no main skill training was received by his players, who therefore only grew older and got a bit more experienced. No wonder the club relegated to VI.401 in season 7 and didn't play any role for the championship there.

The first championships

Not until the middle of season 9 (August 2003) did President Cyclops decide to give more of his valuable time to his club. And it immediately paid off: under the inspiring guidance of player/coach Nu'aim al-Nisaburi all competition matches from week seven on were won, which resulted in Cyclops United winning their first ever title and medal! But still the season was not over. To achieve promotion to V, Cyclops United had to play a qualification match against FC MijnTeam, who had an extremely good goal keeper. But despite that, the Haarlem club scored two goals to make it 2-2 in regular and extra time, so penalties had to decide. Unfortunately, only two CU-players managed to score and promotion had to be postponed.
