Tottenham Hotspur Football Club, commonly referred to simply as Tottenham () or Spurs, is an English football club in Tottenham, London, that competes in the Premier League. The club's home for the 2017 –18 season is Wembley Stadium, as their former home of White Hart Lane has been demolished to make way for a new stadium on the same site. Their 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, the only non-League club to do so since the formation of the Football League in 1888. Tottenham were 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 they became the first British club to win a UEFA club competition – the European Cup Winners' Cup. They were also the inaugural winner of the UEFA Cup in 1972, becoming the first British club to win two different major European trophies. They have collected at least a major trophy in each of the six decades from the 1950s to 2000s – an achievement only matched by Manchester United. In total, Spurs have won two League titles, eight FA Cups, four League Cups, seven FA Community Shields, one European Cup Winners' Cup and two UEFA Cups.
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.
