History

edit

In 1957 F.C. Zwarte Duivels Oud-Heverlee joined the Belgian FA, receiving matricule n°6142. In 1996 the club became champions in the First Provincial Division, thereby promoting into the national level of football for the first time. In 2000, the club became champions again in the Belgian Fourth Division, moving into the Belgian Third Division.[1] There they finished in third place during the 2001–02 season, qualifying for the promotion playoffs. Due to financial difficulties, the club did however not apply for a football license to play in the Belgian Second Division, but rather merged with Stade Leuven and Daring Club Leuven to form Oud-Heverlee Leuven.[2]
