Soccer

When the Norrland clubs were incorporated into the Swedish league pyramid, the football team was one of the founding members of Division 3 Norrländska Norra , but was relegated straight away. After four years in the fourth division, he returned to the third division in 1957, but rose again straight away. This time it only took two years to get promoted again and as fifth in the table, the club stayed in the third division. In the season of 1963 he remained in the entire season without a win, so that he again relegated with five points as bottom of the table. The reputation as an elevator team was consolidated, as the stay at the third highest level of the game lasted only two years after the immediate rise.

In the following years, the IFK Umeå soccer team established itself in the front area of ​​the fourth division. Several times, the team just barely missed returning to the second division as second in the table. From the mid-1970s, the club slipped into the rear division and rose in 1979 to the fifth division. After four years he returned to the fourth division and stayed in the league in the subsequent seasons. As fourth in the table, the club was victim of a league reform in 1986 and had to relegate to the fifth division.

At the end of the 1993 season IFK Umeå returned to the fourth division and managed as a promoted team with a point ahead of Bodens BK as champions the direct march through to the third division. However, the upswing was followed by a direct crash, after the immediate relegation, the team also missed relegation in the fourth division in the subsequent season in the relegation games and even rose in 1998 to the sixth division. After a brief interlude in the fifth division in the 2002 and 2003 seasons, the club established itself in the top of the sixth division. At the end of the 2009 season, the team returned to the fifth division.

The women's team plays in division 4, which is also fifth class .

Boxing

The interest in boxing increased sharply in the 1990s, which is why the club moved to the "Ringside" at the end of 1996.
