The association of Brussels Tigers was created on 3 September 1998 by Michael Louf # 57 (former Angels Brussels). To date, there are over 100 players registered in various categories (peewee flag football, junior flag football, Tackle Junior Senior Tackle) who train two to three times a week. Their summer 2001 (runners-up of the Belgian Bowl 2001 against the Tribes ed) allowed them access to Division 1. But the club's heyday was arguably the 2002 season where they won the championship in Belgium in 2002. In 2003 bread was black Brussels Tigers (who could not defend his title, because the coach did not get the level 1, therefore, leaving 10 players).
