Koninklijke Sportkring Voetbal Klub Maldegem, or KSK Maldegem, is a Belgian amateur football club based in Maldegem. They were founded in 1920 and play their games in Stade Maurice de Waele. The men's team plays in the 7th tier of Belgian football league system in the regional league of Flandre-Orientale.
Maldegem reached the round of 32 in the 2001–02 Belgian Cup after eliminating SV Zulte-Waregem.[3] Maldegem player Stijn Minne joined Zulte-Waregem after the 2001–02 season.[4] From 1999 to 2007, the team spent eight seasons in the Belgian Third Division A.
The logo of the club is very similar to the logo of the Mexican club Monarcas Morelia, adopted by the Mexican club in 1999. Years later Monarcas Morelia changed its name and shield due to its move to Mazatlán.[5]
In 2021, KSK Maldegem agreed to a merger with VK Adegem from Adegem. The merger was finalized after the 2021–22 season. The real result was described as an incorporation of Adegem into Maldegem, with few Adegem players joining the new team, and VK Adegem's grounds being closed off. It was originally planned to retain VK Adegem's facilities for youth training, and the municipality bought the sports grounds to that end, but as the football fields were abandoned, it was planned to rezone the land.[6][7] Said the mayor in 2023, it was "completely untrue that our administration has plans to subdivide this site".[8]
