Tottenham Hotspur Football Club, commonly referred to as Spurs, is an English football club located in Tottenham, London, that plays in the Premier League. The club's home stadium is White Hart Lane. 

Its newly developed training ground is in Bulls Cross on the northern borders of the London Borough of Enfield.

Founded in 1882, Tottenham won the FA Cup for the first time in 1901, making it the only non-League club to do so since the formation of the Football League. 

Tottenham was the first club in the 20th century to achieve the League and FA Cup Double, winning both competitions in the 1960-61 season. 

After successfully defending the FA Cup in 1962, in 1963 it became the first British club to win a UEFA club competition - the European Cup Winners' Cup. 

In 1967 it won the FA Cup for a third time in the 1960s.

In the 1970s Tottenham won the League Cup on two occasions and was the inaugural winner of the UEFA Cup in 1972, becoming the first British club to win two different major European trophies. 

In the 1980s Spurs won several trophies: the FA Cup twice, FA Community Shield and the UEFA Cup in 1984. 

In the 1990s the club won the FA Cup and the League Cup. 

When it won the League Cup once more in 2008, it meant that it had won a major trophy in each of the last six decades - an achievement only matched by Manchester United.

The club's Latin motto is Audere est Facere (lit: "To Dare Is to Do"), and its emblem is a cockerel standing upon a football. 

The club has a long-standing rivalry with nearby neighbours Arsenal, with head-to-head fixtures known as the North London derby.


HISTORY

The club was formed in 1882, as Hotspur F.C., and played in the Southern League from 1896 until 1908, when it was elected into the Football League Second Division.

Before this promotion Tottenham had won the FA Cup in 1901, making it the only non-League club to (or likely to) do so since the formation of the Football League.

Since then, Tottenham have won the FA Cup a further seven times, the Football League twice, the Football League Cup four times, the UEFA Cup twice and also the UEFA Cup Winners' Cup. 

The Cup Winners' Cup victory in 1963 made Tottenham the first English team to win a UEFA competition. 

In 1960-61 it became the first team to complete The Double in the 20th century.
