Tottenham Hotspur history
Founded in 1882, Spurs have played in white shirts with navy blue shorts since the 1898-99 season. They won the FA Cup in 1901 as a non-League side, which no other club has done since the Football League formed in 1888. In 1960-61 Tottenham became the first club of the 20th century to win the League and FA Cup Double, then kept the FA Cup in 1962.
Europe followed. In 1963 Spurs won the European Cup Winners' Cup, making them the first British winners of any UEFA competition, and in 1972 they won the first UEFA Cup. They claimed at least one major trophy in every decade from the 1950s through the 2000s, a feat only Manchester United have matched. At home they have won eight FA Cups, four League Cups, two league titles and seven Community Shields.
