Stade des Marais, Farciennes (Sporting Club Farciennes, formerly RFC Farciennes / R Châtelet-Farciennes / training ground of Olympic Club Charleroi Farciennes)
Belgium, province: Hainaut = Henegouwen
25 IX 2016 / R Châtelet-Farciennes SC - R Olympic Club Charleroi 2-2 / ACFF Div. 2 (= BE Div. 4)
Note 1: after the demise of RFC Farciennes (September 2014), its Stade des Marais remained unused for one year. Because the Farciennes town council was adamant that a new club should occupy the stadium, it asked Châtelet SC to fill the void. In 2015, the club was renamed Châtelet-Farciennes SC, with youth teams playing in Farciennes. One year later, the first team was moved away from the Stade Adrien Mura to Farciennes as well. In 2019, R Châtelet-Farciennes SC concluded a merger, this time with Olympic Club Charleroi, forming Olympic Charleroi-Châtelet-Farciennes (OCCF); first team football now inevitably moved to Olympic Charleroi's Stade de la Neuville, whilst the ground in Farciennes became home to part of the new club's youth academy; since the merger, OCCF's reserves have played at Rue Georges Tourneur in Marchienne-au-Pont. At that point, not only the reference to Châtelet in the club name was dropped, but the Stade Adrien Mura in Châtelet proper was abandoned as well. In 2020, after only one year, R Olympic Charleroi-Châtelet-Farciennes changed its name back to R Olympic Club Charleroi, upon which the premises in Farciennes were abandoned. Meanwhile, the ground has been taken over by two new clubs: a new SC Farciennes (founded in 2020, matricule 9740) and Jeunesse Farciennes (founded in 2021, matricule 9759).
