The club founded in 1896 as Verviers F.C. reached the first division in 1900 but was relegated in 1907 as it finished last. In 1903 the team merged with Stade Wallon de Verviers to become C.S. Verviétois. Verviers was back at the top level in 1912 but was relegated again 12 years later. It played one season again in the first division in 1925-26 at the end of which the club added Royal to its name.
The last spell of the club in the first division was in the late 1950s (1956-61). Its best ranking is a 4th place in 1906. In 2000 the club merged with R. Dison Sport into R. Entente Dison-Verviers, then changed of name twice first to R.E. Dison Verviers (E. is for Excelsior) and then to R.C.S. Verviétois in 2002.
