Heidestraat, Duffel Mijlstraat (K Vlug & Vrij Duffel)
Belgium, province: Antwerp
14 VIII 2019 / KVV Duffel - K Lyra-Lierse 2-4 / Pre-season friendly
Note: In 1954, a recreational football club saw the daylight in the hamlet of Mijlstraat, not far from Duffel; this club, FC Mijlstraat, merged with another recreational team, FC Anderstad, later that same year, forming Vlug & Vrij Duffel-Mijlstraat. In 1955, VV Duffel-Mijlstraat joined the Liers Voetbalverbond (LVV), a local recreational league; only to swap to the Koninklijke Belgische Liefhebbersvoetbalbond (KBLVB) three years later. In 1961, the club joined the Royal Belgian Football Association and took up playing in Antwerp's Provincial Leagues under a new, abbreviated name: VV Duffel. In 1972, the club moved to their current premises at Heidestraat.

Note 2: Below, a compilation of photos of three different visits: pictures 1-8 = non-matchday visit, April 2019 (with old covered stand) / pictures 9-21 = match visit, August 2019 (temporary cover) / pictures 22-24 = non-matchday visit, January 2020 (new stands - note how, oddly, one of the old dug-outs has been given a new role as a veritable 'Gegengerade' stand).
