Onhaye

Onhaye go into this season in Division 1 FFA, the top tier of the French-speaking amateur game in Belgium, having never been there before. The village side from the province of Namur took the Belgian Division 2 ACFF title — their second promotion in two years, after they had won Division 3 ACFF in 2023–24.

The village itself is the thing worth holding onto. Cercle Sportif Onhaye started there in 1963, and its early years read as a hurry: the Third Provincial Division won in 1968–69 under Pol Roeges, the Second Provincial the following season. In 2013 it was granted the Royal title and became RCS Onhaye.

Jean-Yves Ska has been president since 2020, which covers both promotions.

The fixture that draws the crowd at Stade Jean Mathot is the one against RFC Meux, known locally as the Namur derby.

Two players carry the club's name upwards. Antoine Bernier began at Onhaye before Anderlecht, Antwerp, RFC Seraing and Sporting Charleroi; the goalkeeper Esteban Levaux left for the Standard de Liège youth academy and played for Belgium at under-17 level.

Before those two league titles, the trophy cabinet held the Namur Provincial Cup, won in 2004 and again in 2007.
