In the beginning of the 2011 season Tindastóll and Hvöt from Blönduós merged into one team. These teams are located in half an hour drive from each other. Over the years those two teams has been rivals for some years so it came of some surprise to people in both towns that these teams merged into one. Tindastóll/Hvöt was in most part built on players from Tindastóll but Hvöt added some young and promising players to the team. At the end of the season Tindastóll/Hvöt suprised everyone and became the champions of 2. deild karla. After the season the co-operation between those two teams came to an end.

Then the team went on a winning streak and after 17.games the team was in 2nd place. When two games where remaining of the season Tindastóll/Hvöt lead the league by two points. They went on playing agains KF in Ólafsfjörður. It was a tough battle that Tindastóll/Hvöt lost and at the same time Höttur who was in the second place got into the first place and only one game left. In the final game Tindastóll/Hvöt won Völsungur 4-2 and Höttur drew 1-1 with KF. Tindastóll/Hvöt finished the season with 42.points and Höttur 41.points.

Sigurður was the Head Coach of Tindastóll for two seasons in 1999 and 2000. The team was mostly built on home grown players and the team captain was Bjarki Már Árnason a veteran in the Tindastól defence. 3. deild karla is split into four groups and Tindastóll was in group C.
