history
Råå IF was founded as Råå Enighet on March 25, 1921 , but adopted its current name in 1925. The team initially played lower class, in 1944 they were promoted to Division 3, which was then third class . In the season Sydsvenska Södra , the runner-up could be celebrated straight away, six points were missing on the promoted Höganäs BK . A year later, the relay win succeeded without defeat and after 3-0 and 5-0 successes over Falkenbergs FF in the playoffs the qualification for the reformed third division, in which the number of seasons was reduced from 17 to four. Here, too, the team was able to dominate the league and was again the season winner. Thus, the club rose to the second division . In the same year the club also reached the final in the Svenska Cupen. There BK Kenty was clearly outclassed 6-0.
In his first second division season, Råå IF finished fifth. In the 1949/50 season, the team lost only two games and became champions of the southern season of the second division with 30 points from 18 games. The first division promoted could surprise: Behind the team of the early 1950s Malmö FF they became runner-up. As quickly as the team rose, they fell away again. In the second season of the first division they only got twelve points and said goodbye to the elite series. In the following years, the club occupied only midfield places in the second division. In 1958, the club made one sit up and take notice when Landskrona BoIS was runner-up. But then again only places in the middle part of the table and in 1962 the club rose as the penultimate in the third division.
As runner-up in the season Södra Götaland , the direct rise was missed. Also in the following two years Råå IF failed in the same place in the table. From 1966 the club found itself in a relegation battle. While the club was able to save itself in 1967 thanks to the better goal difference, relegation was missed with an eleventh place in 1968 and the former first division team found himself in the fourth division.
In 1974 Råå IF managed to return to the third division and the club even made it through to the Swedish lower house in the following season. In the first season managed with two points ahead of relegated Motala AIF still relegation, but in 1977 the club said goodbye to third from bottom of the second division. Twice the club only missed the return to the second division in the promotion games, but in 1980 they were again in the relegation battle. In 1986, the club fell victim to the league reform and was placed in Division 4, which was then fifth . With that, the team also disappeared from higher-class football.
