Originally established in 1983 as FCL Rapide Wezemaal, it was absorbed by Sint-Truidense in 2008, moving from Wezemaal, Rotselaar to Sint-Truiden.[1] The team enjoyed its most successful period so far between 2004 and 2008, winning four championships in a row (including two doubles) and reaching the 2008 European Cup quarterfinals. In 2010 it won its first championship as Sint-Truidense.[2]

The team won the Belgian championship in 2004,2005, 2006 and 2007, thereby qualifying for the UEFA Women's Cup. After only reaching the first qualifying round in the Women'S Cups 2004-05 and 2005–06, the team reached the second qualifying round in the next season and in 2007-08 went all the way to the quarter finals.
