History
TOP had a short spell in professional football from 1955 until 1957 in the Tweede Divisie before rejoining the amateur ranks. In 1991 the club became pro again.
The club was known as TOP until 1994, when it was renamed TOP Oss to more clearly reflect its city of origin. In the summer of 2009, the club was renamed FC Oss.
It played from 1991 through the 2009–10 season in the Eerste Divisie, but was relegated to the Topklasse in April 2010.
In 2011 Oss became the Topklasse third Division Champions and returned to the Eerste Divisie.
In November 2017, it was announced that the club would be renamed from the 2018–19 season to 'TOP Oss'.[1]
