History[edit]
In 1942, Sporting Club Leval was founded in Leval-Trahegnies. The club joined the Belgian Football Association and started playing in the lower provincial leagues. Leval's club colors were red and blue.
RSC Leval remained in the various provincial leagues for the following decades. At the end of the 1990s, the club dropped from the Second Provincial to the Third Provincial and further to the Fourth Provincial, the lowest level, in 2000. Leval became champions there in 2002 and climbed back to the Third Provincial. In the following years, they continued to climb, first to the Second Provincial and finally in 2008 to the highest provincial level.
In 2012, RSC Leval merged with other clubs in the municipality to form a major club in Binche. Besides Leval, the merger involved two other clubs, RFC Ressaix and JS de Bray.[1] RFC Ressaix was an old club affiliated with the Belgian Football Association with matricule 528. Ressaix was a former first provincial club that had dropped from the First to the Fourth Provincial in the past decade and had returned to the Third Provincial at the time of the merger. JS de Bray was a younger club, affiliated since 2003 with matricule 9437, and had climbed to the Second Provincial. Other clubs in the municipality of Binche did not participate in the merger, including RUS Binchoise, which had played in the national divisions for over a decade but had dropped to the provincial leagues. The merged club was named Royale Jeunesse Entente Binchoise and continued with the matricule 3835 of the highest-ranked Leval in the First Provincial. The matricules of Ressaix and Bray were canceled. The merged club experienced success in its first season. RJE Binchoise became champions and promoted to the national divisions for the first time in 18 years after the city rival RUS Binchoise had disappeared from there.
RJE Binchoise managed to stay in the middle of the Fourth Division in its first season. However, in the second season, they finished last, and the club dropped back to the provincial leagues after two seasons of national football.
On January 30, 2019, RJEB merged with RUS Binchoise to form RUS Binche. The club continued to play in the Third Amateur Division.[2]
