Knattspyrnufélagið Hörður, commonly known as Hörður or Hörður Ísafjörður, is an Icelandic multi-sport club from the town of Ísafjörður. It was founded in 1919 as a football club[1] but since 1933 it has fielded other departments, most prominently in handball, track & field, skiing and Icelandic wrestling.[2][3][4]
History
Knattspyrnufélagið Hörður was founded on 27 May 1919 as a football club with Þórhallur Leósson being its first chairman.[5] Its first official game was against Fótboltafélag Ísafjarðar on 17 June 1921. In 1933 it started a department in women's Handball and in 1937 a track & field department.[6] At its peak in the 1940s it was the largest sports club in the Westfjords.[7][8]
Football
Recent history
After not fielding a senior team since 1940, Hörður sent a men's team to the 4. deild karla in 2014 where it finished 4th in A-group.[3][9] On 1 June 2017, it defeated Snæfell/UDN 14-1 on Olísvöllurinn in Ísafjörður.[10] On 3 June 2018, the team mounted a improbable comeback victory against Hvíti Riddarinn by scoring three goals in the last two minutes of the match, winning 6-5.[11]
