Winter weather puts an end to 1B matches Lommel – Francs Borains and RSCA Futures – Jong Genk
The Challenger Pro League has to cancel some matches this weekend due to the winter weather. Lommel SK and the RSCA Futures cannot play their home games.
Football will not be played in Lommel tonight due to the winter weather. The midfielder postpones his match against Francs Borains.
“Thursday’s heavy snowfall turned the Sovereign Stadium white. Lommel SK worked tirelessly to clear the field of snow, after which an inspection by the association took place in the evening,” the club says on its website.
“After consultation with various interested parties, it was decided to postpone the match on Friday evening until further notice. A new date has not yet been announced. The association will provide more information about this soon.”
Lommel wanted to break the negative spiral before the short winter break in its own Sovereign Stadium. The Limburgers have not been able to win since the beginning of November and have dropped to eighth place in the rankings with 19 points.
Francs Borains crawled out of the relegation zone with a recent 7 out of 9 and is twelfth with 14 points.

Also no football for promises from Anderlecht and Genk
This afternoon Anderlecht also announced the cancellation of tomorrow’s RSCA Futures match against Jong Genk.
“After an inspection by the referee on Thursday where the field was declared unplayable – and in view of the weather forecasts from the RMI – it was decided to cancel the match between RSCA Futures and Jong Genk. This was to take place on Saturday, January 11, 2025 at 4 p.m.,” can be read on the purple-white website.
For the promises of Anderlecht, the cellar cracker against Jong Genk was normally the first home match in the stadium of the bankrupt Deinze.
The Futures will exchange the Lotto Park or the King Baudouin Stadium for the Dakota Arena until the end of the season.
In the rankings, the RSCA Futures are only 14th in the standings with 13 points, Jong Genk is 15th and last with 11 points.
