In 1937 it changed to Beringen F.C. and three years later the club accessed to the [first division](/source/Belgian_First_Division_A) to play only one season. After that season, the name changed to K. Beringen F.C. and then to K. Beeringen F.C. one year later. In 1955 it was back at the top level for two seasons this time. The other spells of the club in the first division were 1958–1960, 1962–70 (with a 2nd place in 1964), 1972–82 and 1983–84. In 1972 the club had its last name change from K. Beeringen F.C. to K.
