NETHERLANDS: SV ADVENDO (1952-) / SC Hoge Vucht (2018)

Sportpark Het Kadijkje, Breda (SV ADVENDO, formerly SC Hoge Vucht)

Netherlands, province: North Brabant

6 IX 2009 / SV ADVENDO - RKSV Groen-Wit 0-1 / Zondag 4e klasse C Zuid I (= NL level 7)

Note: SV ADVENDO, formed in 1932, moved to the Kadijkje ground in 1952; in January 2018, they were joined by SC Hoge Vucht (the former vv Barça), who were forced by the Breda town council to leave their premises at Wisselaar to make way for the local rugby club, but the arrangement lasted for a very short time only, as all of the teams of SC Hoge Vucht were forbidden from taking part in regular football by the Netherlands' Football Association (KNVB). In February 2019, the club saw its KNVB membership withdrawn.

BELGIUM: KFC Wilrijk (1921-1993) / KFC Olympia Wilrijk (1993-2013) / FCO Beerschot-Wilrijk (B) (2013-2019) / K Beerschot VA (B) (2019-)

Fort VI 'Universiteitsplein', Antwerp = Antwerpen = Anvers Wilrijk (FC Olympia Wilrijk)

Belgium, province: Antwerp

5 IX 2009 / KFC Olympia Wilrijk - KFC Vrasene 0-2 / Belgium, League 4B

Note: FC Wilrijck, founded in 1921 (and later spelling their name as FC Wilrijk), acquired the royal epithet in 1950, becoming KFC Wilrijk. In 1993, the club merged with Olympia Wilrijk '72 - incidentally a breakaway club of KFC Wilrijk -, forming KFC Olympia Wilrijk. In 2013, upon the demise of K Beerschot Antwerpen Club, KFC Olympia Wilrijk took on the name FCO Beerschot-Wilrijk, henceforth playing their first team football at Beerschot's Olympisch Stadion - also after a subsequent name change, becoming K Beerschot Voetbal-Antwerpen. From 2013 onwards, the ground at Fort VI has been Beerschot's youth academy.
