The football club of the same name VV Nieuw Roden has its accommodation just outside the official village boundary of Nieuw Roden.
From 1947 onwards, football has been played passionately on the fields at Zevenhuisterweg, even before the Second World War when the club name was VIA (Football is Everything). The fact that football still plays an important role in the village is apparent from the growth that the club has experienced in recent years. Not only is the men's side playing in the third division again this season for the first time since 1982-83, but women's football has also taken off at Nieuw Roden. This has resulted in a women's indoor football team that currently plays on the highest level. Nevertheless our attention was mainly focused on the sports park. And we were not disappointed at all!
