Kortrijk will serve as a preparation hub for Belgium’s national hockey teams ahead of the Paris Olympics. The Red Lions (men’s team) and Red Panthers (women’s team) will both play their final home warm-up matches in Kortrijk, facing South Africa on Friday 12 July. Matches are scheduled at Sportcampus Lange Munte, with the Panthers kicking off at 17:00 and the Lions at 19:30. Temporary stands will accommodate 2,000 seated spectators, while grassy embankments will allow an additional 1,000 to watch. The events underline Kortrijk’s growing role in Belgian hockey infrastructure and its appeal for high-profile sporting events.
