R.C.S. Verviétois

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Royal Cercle Sportif Verviétois is a Belgian football club from the municipality of Verviers, Liège (province). It is currently playing in the third division B. It became a member of the Belgian Football Association in 1896 and received the matricule n°8.

[edit] History

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 turn of the club in the first division was in the late 1950s (1956-61). Its best ranking was a 4th place in 1906. In 2000, the club merged with R. Dison Sport to become R. Entente Dison-Verviers; it then changed its name twice, first to R.E. Dison Verviers (E. is for Excelsior) and subsequently to R.C.S. Verviétois in 2002.
