Faroe Islands Premier League Football

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Premier League of Association football in the Faroe Islands - from 2005 officially named Formuladeildin after the sponsor - was founded in 1942. It is organised by the Faroe Islands Football Association.

It currently has 10 participating clubs. At the end of each season, two teams are relegated and two promoted from what is now the First Division.

[edit] History

Although the league was founded in 1942, clubs did not compete in European competition until 1993. From 1942 to 1975 it was called Meistaradeildin (Champions Division) and from 1976 to 2004 it was called 1. deild (First Division). The second tier has since adopted this name.

[edit] Clubs for the 2007 Season

Next to each club is the village, town or island that it represents.

At the end of the 2006 season, Skála IF and B68 Toftir were relegated.
