BELGIUM: RRC Nimysien (1925-1995) / RAS Nimy-Maisières (1995-2013) / RES Obourg-Nimy-Maisières (B) (2013-2020) / R Entente Mons Nord (B) (2020-)

Stade Mantannus, Nimy (R Entente Mons Nord - B ground, formerly R Racing Club Nimysien / R Association Sportive Nimy-Maisières, B ground of R Entente Sportive Obourg-Nimy-Maisières)

Belgium, province: Hainaut = Henegouwen

4 IX 2021 / FC Alliance - FC Cheminots Saint-Ghislain 2-0 / RGCCMB Division 2

Note 1: RC Nimysien, founded in 1925, acquired the royal epithet in 1963. In 1995, the club merged with ASC Maisières, forming RAS Nimy-Maisières. First team football took place in Nimy, while the ground in Maisières remained in use for lower team football and training purposes. In 2013, a new merger was concluded, this time with FC Obourg, the result being RES Obourg-Nimy-Maisières, with first team football moving to Obourg. Finally, in 2020, the club changed their name to become R Entente Mons Nord. The ground in Nimy remains in use for training purposes and lower team football. 

Note 2: Royal Groupement Corporatif Centre-Mons-Borinage (RGCCMB) is a league of amateur teams from the Central Hainaut region. It is an independent Saturday league (i.e. not affiliated to Belgium's official Football Association) of several dozens of clubs, subdivided into three divisions. Some clubs in the RGCCMB have their own ground, while some others rent a ground owned by another club - which is the case for FC Alliance in the 2021/2022 season, who are playing their home games at Nimy's Stade Mantannus.
