It is the result of the merger between the former club with the same name KRC Zuid-West-Vlaanderen and KSV Ingelmunster in 2002. The club was founded in 1930 as KSV Ingelmunster and played in Ingelmunster before they moved to Harelbeke in 2002. Since 2002, the club changed its name 3 times, from Sporting West Ingelmunster-Harelbeke in 2003, to Sporting West Harelbeke in 2007 and ultimately to KRC Harelbeke in 2016. The Stedelijk Forestiersstadion is the home of KRC Harelbeke and also of football club SWL Harelbeke.
