Wolvenstraat, Gooik Strijland (KV Kester-Gooik, formerly Verbroedering Strijland-Gooik / B ground of VV Kester-Gooik)

Belgium, province: Flemish Brabant

13 X 2019 / KV Kester-Gooik - KFC Borght-Humbeek 3-1 / Brabant, VFV Provincial League 1 (= BE level 6)

Note: Verbroedering Strijland-Gooik, founded in 1972, played their football at Wolvenstraat from the club's foundation onwards, though they did not field a first team from 2008 onwards. In 2018, a merger was concluded between Verbroedering Strijland-Gooik and KV Kester-Gooik, forming VV Kester-Gooik. For one more season, first team football was played at Lindestraat in Gooik, whilst a completely new ground was constructed at Wolvenstraat, which involved building a new clubhouse as well as turning the pitch through ninety degrees. Inaugurated in November 2018, the new Wolvenstraat accommodation hosted Kester-Gooik's youth academy as well as being the venue for a couple of VV Kester-Gooik first team games; from the 2019/2020 season onwards, KV Kester-Gooik (note that the prefix VV was changed back to being KV after one season only) have moved all their football to the new ground. The pitches at Lindestraat have remained in use for training purposes.
