History
Black Pirates (1954–1957) Flamingo's (1957–1982) Stars Haarlem (1982–1983)
The team was founded in 1954 as Black Pirates by baseball players who before played for several different teams. In its first year, they were the city champions of Haarlem and finished third in the national league. The games were played in the Krelagehuis, despite there being no changing rooms and showers. The rent of the hall was so expensive, that the club did not make profit despite high attendance for games. Players of Flamingo's had to pay entrance for the games as well to cover the rent.
