The letters KFC stand for Koninklijke Fusie-Club (Royal Fusion Club). K. Achel VV (Royal Achel Soccer Association) has been around since 1909, although the club went by the name of Klein Maar Dapper (Small but Courageous) at the time. In collaboration with the municipality of Hamont-Achel, they manage to turn this into a successful tournament year after year!

 

 

The Euro Cup tournament takes place in the municipality of Hamont-Achel; in an area along the Dutch border. Achel VV and KFC Hamont 99 have beautiful sports grounds with respectively 5 and 7 pitches, a stadium, and a nice clubhouse with a view at the main sportsfield. The grounds will also feature a catering square with a bar and terrace during the event.

The municipality is well known for the Saint Benedictus-Abbey where Achel trappist beer is brewed. The pride of Hamont-Achel, however, is Marc Emmers. Capped for Belgium 37 times, the footballer kicked off his career at KFC Hamont 99. The sports complex is at walking distance of the centre.  

Lommel

Lommel is a town with some 29,000 residents in the Belgian part of Limburg, just below the Dutch border. Surrounded by dunes and forests of pine trees, Lommel is a real paradise for nature lovers.

From April to October, the famous Teutenmarkt (flea/antique market) takes place.

Swimming pool - Lago Dommelslag

Need to burn a bit more energy after playing football? Then why not go for a swim at the swimming pool Lago Dommelslag in Overpelt? It’s only 10 kilometres from Hamont. Enjoy hours of fun in the wave pool, rushing down the slide and navigating the white-water course. The latter ride is like being swept down a mighty tropical river. Hold on tight, as you spin and swing around from left to right. A little tired after all that? Then why not go and chill out in the sauna, the hot tub or the steam room? After that, you’ll be all set to go again!

Salvator College
School/Sportshall

Since the start of the tournament some decades ago, the participants of the Euro-Cup Tournament are welcome in the Salvator College on the border of the friendly village Hamont.
