BELGIUM: VK Sint-Agatha-Berchem (1988-2019) / ASC Berchem (1997-2000, 2014-2016) / FSI Berchem (2012-2019) / BX Brussels (2013) / FC Synergy Bruxelles (2018-) / NSeth Berchem (2019-)

Complexe Hunderenveld, Brussels = Bruxelles = Brussel Berchem-Sainte-Agathe = Sint-Agatha-Berchem (NSeth Berchem & FC Synergy Bruxelles, formerly VK Sint-Agatha-Berchem / Football Street Intelligent Berchem / BX Brussels / Amical Sporting Club Berchem)

Belgium, Brussels Capital Area

8 IX 2013 / BX Brussels - FC Pepingen 1-5 / National Division 4B (= BE level 4)

Note: As is the case with many other smaller grounds in Brussels, the history of Complexe Hunderenveld is rather complicated. VK Berchem, founded in 1970, played at the ground from 1988 onwards, though it is beyond my knowledge if that is also the year of the inauguration of the premises. Over the years, the ground has been home to several more Berchem football clubs, including the likes of Amical Sporting Club Berchem (who started a second life under a new matricule in 2014 but changed names to become SCB Anderlecht, moving away to Stade Verdi in 2016) and FSI Berchem. Between August and October 2013, BX Brussels also used the ground before moving on to a new groundshare with RSD Jette at Stade Communal "Complexe Expo" in Jette. In 2019, in a shock decision by Berchem-Sainte-Agathe's town council, original users VK Sint-Agatha-Berchem were evicted from the premises, heralding the immediate end of that club, leaving FSI Berchem - under their new name NSeth Berchem - as the ground's main users.
