TOS (Ter Overwinning Streven) was established on 10 October 1912 in the basement of a store on Lange Leidsedwarsstraat by a group of individuals from various parts of Amsterdam.

TOS could only utilise this pitch on weekends, leading to the need for the members to manually redraw the lines every Friday using lime and bring the goalposts themselves.

Initially, Actief secured a pitch on a sandy terrain in the Indische Buurt and became part of the Dutch Christian Football Association.

Following the war, the area was in disarray, and the remaining members of TOS-Actief played a crucial role in clearing debris from the pitch and constructing a wooden pavilion.

In 1976, Amsterdam planned to construct a highway over the TOS-Actief area, prompting the club to relocate to Sportpark De Toekomst.
