Wikipedia - Lierse S.K. (2018)
Koninklijke Lierse Sportkring is a Belgian association football club located in Lier, in the province of Antwerp. The club, founded in 1943 as Oosterzonen in Oosterwijk, was relocated to Lier following the bankruptcy of Lierse in 2018. After an official name change, Lierse Kempenzonen was renamed to K. Lierse S.K. in 2024. They compete in the Challenger Pro League, the second tier of Belgian football.
History
The club was founded in 1943 as FC Oosterzonen from a commune within Westerlo. It started in the Belgian provincial leagues where it hovered between the various levels, most of the time playing at the 6th or 7th level of the Belgian football pyramid. In 2007, 2008 and 2009, the club won the title for three consecutive seasons and were promoted for the first time in its history to the national levels of football. In the Belgian Fourth Division, the club avoided relegation for a few seasons, before managing another promotion in the 2012–13 season into the Belgian Third Division. Following the reform of Belgian football in 2016, the team started playing in the Belgian First Amateur Division.
In May 2018, it was announced that the club would relocate to Lier, as it merged with the old board of Lierse (a club which had gone bankrupt just a few weeks before) to form a new club called Lierse Kempenzonen. The new team continued with the old logo of Lierse and started playing in the Herman Vanderpoortenstadion in Lier.
The team's colors are traditionally yellow and black, which are proudly displayed by their supporters, known as the "Lierse Fans." Over the years, Lierse has experienced various successes, including multiple Belgian league titles and cup victories, making it a notable name in Belgian football history.
Lierse has a reputation for nurturing young talent and has been a stepping stone for many players who have gone on to achieve success in larger leagues. The club's commitment to developing local talent is reflected in its youth academy, which aims to instill a strong sense of teamwork and sportsmanship in aspiring footballers.
Despite facing challenges in recent years, including relegation and financial difficulties, Lierse remains a beloved institution in Belgian football, with a dedicated fan base that continues to support the team through thick and thin. The club's ambition is to return to the top tier of Belgian football and reclaim its place among the elite, while fostering a strong community spirit and passion for the beautiful game.
