history

Myresjö IF was founded in 1943. In addition to football and skiing, there was an ice hockey department in the 1950s and a bandy department , which were later dissolved. Towards the end of the decade, the football team began to rise. 1959 still in the lowest division managed to rise to the third division until 1968, in which the team narrowly missed the march into the second division in their first season behind Nybro IF as runner-up. After several years in midfield of the season Mellersta Götaland , the club moved in 1977 as a season winner in the promotion round to the second division. Behind IFK Kristianstad and Trelleborgs FF , the team missed promotion as third of the round. In 1981 she repeated the season win and prevailed in the subsequent relegation against Norrby IF and BK Forward .

In the following years, the club oscillated between second and third league level. After he was relegated again in 1997, the team missed renewed promotion in the relegation against IK Kongahälla .

Myresjö IF established itself on the third level. In 2005, the club survived a league reform when the four seasons were combined into two seasons. The subsequent season he ended on a relegation zone.
