Founded in 1904 as Racing Club de Malines, the club registered two years later to the federation and received the matricule n°24. The name of the club changed three times: first the suffix Société Royale was added (1929), then the name was translated in Dutch becoming Racing Club Mechelen
Koninklijk e Maatschappij (1937). It was eventually simplified in 1957.. Afterwards, the club fell to the second division and rarely played at a higher level since a couple of decades.
