Iceland icfootball club fromÓlafsfjörður currently playing in the 2.deild. Their main colors are blue and yellow with green as a tertiary.History
Íþróttafélagið Leiftur were promoted to the Úrvalsdeild Karla in 1987, but went straight back down to the
1. deild karla (at the time, the 2.deild). They were again promoted to the top league before the start of the 1994 season having missed out by a point in 1993.Leiftur finished 5th in the Úrvalsdeild in 1998, and finished runners-up in the cup to
ÍBV who won the league, qualifying the team for theUEFA Cup 1999-00 . The team lost toRSC Anderlecht 9-1 on aggregate in the first round but finished 3rd in the league in 1999, which tied their 1996 finish.The year after, in 2000, the team was relegated from the Úrvalsdeild. After a mid-table finish in the 1.deild in 2001, the team merged to become Leiftur/Dalvík, but this did not lead to success on the pitch as the team was relegated into the third tier of Icelandic football in 2003, and to the fourth tier in 2005. The team then dumped their merger with Dalvík and joined forces with KS to remain in the 2.deild.
