BELGIUM: RES Jamboise (196?-1989) / RFC Namur (B) (1989-1996) / UR Namur (B) (1996-2001) / UR Namur (2001-2002, 2023-) / ES Jamboise (2000-)

Stade Communal 'ADEPS', Jambes (Entente Sportive Jamboise matr. 9363 & UR Namur, formerly RES Jamboise matr. 1579 & UR Namur)

Belgium, province: Namur = Namen

6 IV 2014 / ES Jamboise - Standard Club Oheytois 0-4 / Namur, Provincial League 2A (= BE level 6)

Note: Sporting Club (SC) Jambes, founded in 1930 (matricule 1579), changed its name to become Entente Sportive (ES) Jamboise in 1941; the club acquired the royal epithet upon its 25th anniversary in 1955. RES Jamboise had a good spell in the 1960s with nine consecutive seasons of National Division 3 football; in that period, the club moved into the Stade Communal, known nowadays as the Stade ADEPS or Stade Olympique de Jambes. In 1989, a merger was concluded with UR Namur, resulting in the foundation of RFC Namur under UR Namur's matricule 156; first team football moved to UR Namur's Stade Michel Soulier, while the ground in Jambes most probably remained in use for lower team football and training purposes. In 2001, UR Namur - as RFC Namur was named from 1996 onwards - was forced to abandon the Stade Soulier and moved its first team football to Jambes as well. The situation lasted for one season only, as UR Namur absorbed Racing Wallonia Saint-Servais in 2002 and moved into that club's Stade Communal des Bas-Prés in Salzinnes. Meanwhile, in Jambes, a new club had been founded in December 1999, Entente Sportive (ES) Jamboise (matricule 9363), which has participated in regular league football from the summer of 2000 onwards. ES Jamboise were joined at the Stade ADEPS by UR Namur (the royal epithet freshly retrieved, which had been lost following the merger with Fosses-la-Ville) in the summer of 2023 as the Stade des Bas-Prés will be demolished.
