The Dutch Football League is organized by the
Koninklijke Nederlandse Voetbal Bond[?] (KNVB, Royal Dutch Football Association). There are two divisions for professional teams in the
Netherlands: a premier division (
eredivisie) and a first division (
eerste divisie). Previously, a second division was also in existence, but it was discontinued after the
1970/
1971 season.
Most successful teams are Ajax Amsterdam (27 titles as of 2001), PSV Eindhoven (16) and Feyenoord Rotterdam (14).
