RKVV Westlandia is a football club from Naaldwijk, Netherlands. In the 2023–24 season, the Sunday male first squad Westlandia is competing in the Vierde Divisie (fifth tier). The Saturday first squad plays in the Eerste Klasse after promoting in 2016.
History
The Sunday first team won a section championship at the 2008–09 Hoofdklasse A. At that time, the Hoofdklasse was the highest tier of Dutch amateur football.
The Saturday first squad has been making fast progress. It started playing in 2004–5 in the Vijfde Klasse. That season it promoted from 5th position. In 2008 it promoted from the Vierde Klasse to the Derde Klasse from 2nd position. In 2012 it promoted to the Tweede Klasse after a section championship. In 2016 it promoted again to the Eerste Klasse, from the runner-up position.
Westlandia har aldrig spillet i den højeste hollandske fodboldrække, Eredivisie, men har flere gange spillet i Eerste Divisie, den næstbedste række. Klubbens bedste placering i Eerste Divisie var en andenplads i sæsonen 1969/70.
I pokalturneringen KNVB Beker har Westlandia nået finalen to gange, i 1969 og 1973, men begge gange tabte klubben finalen.
Westlandia er kendt for sin gode ungdomsafdeling, der har fostret flere professionelle fodboldspillere, herunder Arjan van der Laan, Wiljan Pluim og Jeffrey Gouweleeuw.
