In 2012, ADO won its first and only national championship.[2] They also achieved the double, winning the KNVB Women's Cup. Since that season, the club has been consistently mid-table, finishing in 4th, 5th, or 6th place in every season and not qualifying for European tournaments. The team had its worst result in 2024–25, landing in seventh place with 11 losses and a -18 goal difference.[3] The team has had more success in the KNVB Cup, winning in 2013 and 2016, reaching the finals in 2021, and playing in the semi-finals four times.[4]
A stork, a symbol and logo of The Hague, is central to the club logo.[5][6]
