K.F.C. Rhodienne-Verrewinkel

Koninklijke Football Club Rhodienne-Verrewinkel is a Belgian association football club created in 1894 as Racing Football Club. It became a member of the Belgian Football Association in 1895 as Racing Club de Bruxelles and later received the matricule n°6. It took part to the first Belgian league the same year and won 6 titles of Belgian Champion and 1 Cup until the first world war.

Then, the club declined, and in 1963, it merged with White Star Woluwé A.C. to avoid bankruptcy. The new club was then called Royal Racing White. It was decided that this club would keep the matricule N°47 of White Star Woluwé. Thus to avoid that the matricule n°6 of Royal Racing Club de Bruxelles (as it was named since 1921) was erased, the club exchanged its matricule with that of K. Sport Sint-Genesius-Rode.
