History

IFK Kristianstad

The football section of IFK Kristianstad was founded in 1899 and played several seasons in the 2nd highest football division of Sweden.

Kristianstads IS

Kristianstads Idrottssällskap (Kristianstad Sports Association) was founded in 1929 and refounded in 1995.

Vilans BoIF

Vilans Boll- och Idrottsförening (Vilans Football and Sports Association) was a football club from Vilan, a city district of Kristianstad. The club was founded on 27 June 1932 and was the successor to the predecessor club Vilans IF, which was founded in 1924 and dissolved in 1931.

Kristianstads BI

Kristiandstads Boll- och idrottssällskap (Kristiandstads Football and Sports Association) was founded in 1933. In the year 1970 they finished second Place in the Division III, above Vilans BoIF and IFK Kristianstad and were therefore the best football club in Kristianstad in that year.

Kristianstads FF

Kristianstads FF was founded in 1990, when the football section of IFK Kristianstad merged with Vilans BoIF. The club then began life in Division 3 Sydöstra Götaland, which was the fourth tier of Swedish football. In the first few seasons Kristianstads FF finished in mid-table positions but then won promotion at the end of the 1993 season after finishing top of the Division 3 Sydöstra Götaland.

The club established themselves in Division 2 Södra Götaland over the next four seasons before winning the division in 1998. There followed one season in Division 1 Södra in 1999 where the club finished in ninth position and were most unfortunate to be relegated at the end of the campaign as a result of league re-structuring. The club's confidence dipped in Division 2 Södra Götaland and a further relegation followed at the end of the 2001 season.

However the club were promoted from Division 3 Sydöstra Götaland in 2002 after finishing in second place. Over the rest of the decade the club has played in Division 1 Södra and Division 2 Södra Götaland where they currently reside.

Kristianstads FF Women

The women team of Kristianstads FF played in 1992 and 1994 in the Division 1 Södra, the second highest level of Swedish Womens Football. On 5 November 1998, the team merged with the women team of Wä IF to form Kristianstad/Wä DFF, that was renamed in 2006 to Kristianstads DFF. Kristianstads DFF plays in the Damallsvenskan, the highest division of Women's football in Sweden.

Kristianstad BoIS

Kristianstads Boll- och Idrottssällskap (Kristianstad Football and Sports Association) was founded on 20 January 2008 through a fusion of Kristianstads BI and Kristianstads IS. They retained the club name of Kristianstads BI, but changed their shorter name to Kristianstad BoIS to differentiate the funsioned club to the older club.
