Discovering the Club's Past
For its first 30 years, Falkenbergs FF mostly played in a league called Division 3. In those early days, the club wasn't just about football. They also played other sports like bandy (a sport similar to ice hockey) and handball.
In the early 1970s, around 1973 and 1974, FFF was playing in Division 6. But then, they started to climb up the ranks! They earned two promotions in a row. In 1986, they moved from Division 3 to Division 2. The very next year, in 1987, they were promoted again to Division 1. This meant that 1988 was the first time Falkenbergs FF played in the second-highest league in Swedish football.
In 1998, Falkenbergs FF had a really strong start to the season. They were even leading Division 1 Södra and hoped to reach the top league, Allsvenskan. However, they couldn't keep up that pace for the whole season. They ended up finishing seventh in the league.
