August 2019 & July 2022 / no match visited

Timeline
  • 1969 / Foundation of Snef Football Club (FC). Upon joining Belgium's FA, the club, which first fielded a first team for the 1970-71 season, obtains matricule 7315.
  • 1977 / Following back-to-back promotions, Snef FC accedes to Hainaut's Provincial League 2 for the first time. In the following 42 years, the club alternates spells in P2 and P3, with just one excursion to Provincial League 4 in the 2007-08 season.
  • ±1979 / Snef FC must have moved to Stade du Maffle around 1979 (anyone able to provide the exact year is more than welcome to contact me).
  • 2000 / Snef FC changes its name to become Association Sportive (AS) Snef-Tyber.
  • 2010 / A synthetic surface is installed on the second pitch of the ground (Stade du Maffle - terrain 2).
  • ±2012 / First team football moves to the synthetic pitch on the other side of the clubhouse Unfortunately, the former main pitch has seen little activity since, with the odd youth match being played on it now and then (anyone able to provide the exact year of AS Snef-Tyber's first team moving to the 3G is more than welcome to contact me).
  • 2020 / AS Snef-Tyber changes its name to become FC Snef - a near-copy of the original club name created in 1969.
  • 2021 / Inauguration of FC Snef's new clubhouse (cp. pictures 6-9 below).
Note: Below, a compilation of photos of two different non-matchday visits: pictures 1 & 6-14 = July 2022 / pictures 3-5 = August 2019 / picture 2: screenshot taken from Google Maps (Streetview) giving an impression of what the old canteen looked like - viewed from the 3G pitch on the northern side of the clubhouse.
