History
edit20th century
editCKV De Kapellen was founded on 4 June 1963.[2] AKV De Bermen was also founded in 1963.[3] De Bermen was the largest korfball cub in members in the Rotterdam region.[4] De Kappellen stood out as a smaller korfball club.[2] On 1 July 1999 CKV De Kapellen and AKV De Bermen merged into Korfbal Combinatie Capelle (KCC).[5]
21st century
editIn 2017, KCC promoted for the first time to the top tier indoor Korfbal League. It relegated back to second tier in 2019, though not for long as in 2020 it returned to the Korfbal League. In 2020–21 KCC finished dead-last and was saved from relegation by the COVID-19 pandemic in the Netherlands. In the 2021–22, it was under the threat of losing an indoor facility, when their sports hall was needed for COVID-19 vaccinations.[6]
In 2022–23, KCC's player, Bo Oppe, who also played on the Dutch national team, became the top scorer for the season of the Korfbal League. It sufficed only for a 7th place out of 10 for KCC, and no relegation games that year for KCC. After Oppe left to the Papendrechtse Korfbalclub, KCC played a weak 2023–2024 season.[1] Finishing second to last, it played relegation games against promotion-hopeful KV TOP, which KCC won twice.[7] KCC hence remained in the Korfbal League for 2024–2025.[7]
