Note 1: Berchem Sport, founded in 1906 as an athletics club and adding football to their range of activities two years later, moved into Stadion 't Rooi in 1929. In 1931, the club became a Société Royale, preferring the French epithet 'Royal' to the Dutch-language 'Koninklijk' until 1967, when the club name was 'flemicised'. In 2005, following severe financial problems, the club had to resort to a restart under a slightly amended name, K Berchem Sport 2004. In 2008, the stadium was named after mythical former player Ludo Coeck. Finally, in 2019, all terraces were knocked down and - the main stand being declared unsafe - two new, temporary stands were installed (cp. pictures 37-44 below). It is as yet unclear what the future holds for the ground's monumental main stand.

BELGIUM: KSC Lokeren matr. 282 (1970-2000) / K Sporting Lokeren Sint-Niklaas Waasland (2000-2003) / KSC Lokeren Oost-Vlaanderen (2003-2020) / KSC Lokeren-Temse (2020-2025) / Club Brugge KV (B) (2020-2021) / KSC Lokeren matr. 4297 (2025-)

Daknamstadion, Lokeren (KSC Lokeren matr. 4297, formerly KSC Lokeren matr. 282 / K Sporting Lokeren Sint-Niklaas Waasland / KSC Lokeren Oost-Vlaanderen / KSC Lokeren-Temse / B ground of Club Brugge KV)

Belgium, province: East Flanders = Oost-Vlaanderen

29 III 2008 / Sporting Lokeren - SV Zulte Waregem 0-0 / 1e klasse (= BE level 1)
26 I 2013 / Sporting Lokeren - RSC Anderlecht 0-2 / 1e klasse (= BE level 1)

Note 1: K Sporting Club Lokeren saw the daylight in 1970 as a result of a merger between two local lower league clubs, Standaard FC Lokeren and K Racing Club Lokeren. On the occasion of the merger, the Lokeren town council offered the new club to play in their Stedelijk Stadion, which had hitherto served as a venue for athletics and dog races; later, the ground, which saw major improvements over the years, was renamed Daknamstadion - named after the hamlet just north of Lokeren proper where the ground is located. From the mid-1970s, the new club was a household name in Belgium's highest football league, only interrupted by a short spell in Tweede Klasse (League Div. 2) in the 1990s. In 2000, KSC Lokeren merged with K Sint-Niklase SK Excelsior to become K Sporting Lokeren Sint-Niklaas Waasland, renamed KSC Lokeren Oost-Vlaanderen three years later. In April 2020, KSC Lokeren Oost-Vlaanderen went into administration, ceasing all activities. Thereupon, a 'merger' was concluded with KSV Temse to become KSC Lokeren-Temse. First team football was played in Lokeren, whilst the youth academy settled at Temse's Fernand Schuermanstadion. This arrangement lasted until 2023, when all activities were moved to Lokeren's Daknamstadion. In 2025, the merger club took on the old name KSC Lokeren, dropping the reference to Temse.

Note 2: In the 2020-2021 season, Club Brugge KV's U23 side, which were suddenly introduced into the football pyramid in Division 1B to fill up the numbers, played their football at the Daknamstadion. The experiment was discontinued after one year - and FC Bruges left the stadium in Lokeren as a result.
