History

20th century

VV Jubbega was founded on 14 April 1945 through the merger of the Rode Duivels (Red Devils) and Samenspel Doet Overwinnen (Teamworks Wins).

In 1948, it joined the Vierde Klasse of the KNVB, immediately taking a section championship. Since, it has been hovering between the Vierde and Eerste Klasse, peaking in 1963 as third in the Eerste. An exception was 1998–99 when Jubbenga played in the Vijfde Klasse, immediately bouncing back through a section championship and automatic promotion.
