Timeline

• 1921 / Foundation of a new football club in Waremme, which is given the name Stade Waremmien FC.
• 1922 / A year following its foundation, Stade Waremmien FC joins Belgium’s Football Association. The club moves into Stade Longchamps in Petit-Axhe that same year.
• 1972 / Having played at Stade Longchamps for 50 years, the club now moves away to the newly built Stade Edmond Leburton, situated closer to the town centre. Simultaneously, on the northern side of the new stadium, a pitch is put in place for the benefit of local recreational clubs, including Cosmo Waremme, which is sponsored by a local café, named Cosmos. Moreover, not far from the new stadium, at Site Haute-Wegge, new training facilities are built for R Stade Waremmien around the same time. 
• 2020 / Waremme’s municipal authorities allow asylum seekers to make use of the clubhouse at Site du Haute-Wegge, meaning that Stade Waremmien can no longer use the premises. Youth academy training sessions have continued to be held at the two pitches of Haute-Wegge, but with the youths having to use the dressing rooms of Stade Leburton.
