BELGIUM: RUS Bérismenil (1938-2025) / ROC Rochois (2021-2023)

Stade Jules Bastin, Bérismenil (R Union Sportive Bérismenil / groundsharers: R Olympic Club Rochois)

Belgium, province: Luxembourg

3 VIII 2021 / ROC Rochois - RFC Saint-Hubert 2-1 / Belgian Luxembourg, Provincial Cup - group stage, group G

Note: Union Sportive Bérismenil, founded in 1938, acquired the royal epithet in 1964. From 2019 onwards, the club has no longer fielded a first team, instead focusing on their (admittedly very small) youth academy. In the summer of 2021 onwards, they were joined by ROC Rochois from nearby La Roche-en-Ardenne. ROC Rochois groundshared at Bérismenil while the sports hall next to their ground at Rue des Echavées, which includes the club's dressing rooms, were being rebuilt. In 2023, the club moved back to their home ground. By that time, however, RUS Bérismenil no longer had a first team, with ROC Rochois keeping its junior partner alive by allowing some of their youth academy teams to play their matches under the registration number of Bérismenil. By 2025, though, all youth teams - even those nominally referred to by the name of RUS Bérismenil - had been moved back to Rue des Echavées.
