Football league season
The Dutch Eerste Divisie in the 1958–59 season was contested by 31 teams, divided in one group of sixteen teams and one of fifteen. One team less participated this year, due to the merger of DWS with eredivisie-club BVC Amsterdam. FC Volendam and Sittardia won the championship.
