Valdres Fotballklubb is a Norwegian football club based in Fagernes, Valdres. The men's team currently plays in the Fifth Division, the sixth tier of the Norwegian football league system; whereas the women's team currently plays in the Third Division.
The club was founded in December 2001 as a merger between Sør-Aurdal FK and the football branch of Fagernes IL. It was known as SAFK Fagernes until 2006, when the current name was implemented.[1]
The men's team had a run as a mid-table Second Division team between 2008 and 2013. In the 2014 Second Division, the team ended last and faced relegation.
In 2019, the first-team squad was almost completely disintegrated. The remaining team plummeted out of the Third Division, following lacklustre results such as a 0–19 loss. The team started with an outfield player as goalkeeper and often lacked substitutes. However, they were praised for sportsmanship in actually finishing the season instead of pulling out.[2]
The 2020 season was cancelled due to covid, but as the 2021 Norwegian Fourth Division progressed, Valdres ended last and was relegated to the sixth tier. Still, the team secured a berth in the 2022–23 Norwegian Football Cup first qualifying round. Valdres lost 0–3 to Gran IL.
The women's team plays in the Third Division.
