Timeline

• 1973 / Foundation of Charneux FC as a recreational club. In the first year of its existence, the club sticks to playing friendlies against teams from surrounding villages. The club disposes of just one pitch, situated at Cour Beaupré. A small clubhouse is constructed, situated on the northern end of the pitch. 
• 1974 / Applying for membership of the Belgian Football Association, Charneux FC obtains registration number 8152 and is placed in Liège's Provincial League 4.
• 1995 / In a major renovation of Terrain du Cour Beaupré, a start is made on building a new clubhouse on the western side of the main pitch. As this temporarily renders the pitch unusable, an emergency pitch is laid out at the northern end of the old clubhouse, while the club is given the luxury of a training pitch (current terrain 3) to the south of the main pitch.
• 1996 / In June 1996, the new clubhouse is inaugurated, as well as a new B pitch on its western side. With the emergency pitch being given up, the ground now consists of two pitches suitable for matches as well as one training pitch.
