Huddinge IF is a Swedish football club located in Huddinge, a municipality in Stockholm County in east central Sweden.[1]
Huddinge Idrottsförening is the oldest sports club in the municipality. Inspired by the 1912 Summer Olympics in Stockholm, Otto Hellkvist founded the club the same year. For several decades, the club had many sections, including bandy, table tennis, cycling, athletics, and skiing. Today, Huddinge IF is purely a football club and is one of the largest in Stockholm with about 1,200 active members and 70 teams. Successful clubs in Huddinge that originated as sections within Huddinge IF before breaking away from the parent club include Huddinge IK (ice hockey) and Huddinge BT (table tennis).[2]
Since their founding Huddinge IF has participated mainly in the middle and lower divisions of the Swedish football league system. The club currently plays in Division 2 Södra Svealand which is the fourth tier of Swedish football. They play their home matches at Källbrinks IP in Huddinge.[3]
At best, they have played in the third tier, 1970 (when it was called division 3), 1989 and 1996 (when it was called division 2), and 2014-15 (when it was called division 1).
The ladies team of the club played three seasons, 1998–2000, in the second tier, when it was called division 1 (present day Elitettan). In 2024, they are in the fourth tier, division 2, after promotion from division 3 in 2023.
