LSK Kvinner FK

History

The club was founded in 1989 as a merger between the women's football branches of Setskog IF and Høland IL. It was known as Setskog/Høland FK and played their home games on AHF-banen in Bjørkelangen, Aurskog-Høland.

Before the 2001 season the club was relocated from Bjørkelangen to Strømmen and the name was changed to Team Strømmen. Team Strømmen finished the 2008 season in 2nd position in Toppserien, the top division of Norwegian football. They lost 1–3 against league champions Røa IL in the Norwegian Cup final on Bislett Stadion on 8 November 2008.

From 2010 the club has been an alliance club of Lillestrøm SK. Thus changing its name to LSK Kvinner FK, as well as the logo and kits likewise. LSK Kvinner won six consecutive Toppserien titles from 2014 to 2019.

At Lillestrøm Sportsklubb's annual meeting on 23 March 2022, a controversial proposal was made to merge LSK Kvinner FK into Lillestrøm Sportsklubb. When the annual meetings of both clubs decided to incorporate Team Strømmen as an alliance club in 2009, there was an ambition for the clubs to eventually merge. However, this never happened, and when the new merger proposal surfaced in 2022, it sparked a debate about the relationship between the two clubs. At Lillestrøm Sportsklubb's extraordinary annual meeting on 30 November, the proposal was rejected with 151 votes against and only 7 votes in favour of the merger. After this failed merger process, LSK Kvinner FK began exploring other clubs due to financial difficulties. On 29 May 2024, the club signed a letter of intent with Lørenskog IF regarding a potential merger. However, Lørenskog IF ultimately withdrew from the agreement.
