Association football, more commonly known as football or soccer, is a team sport played between two teams of 11 players who primarily use their feet to propel the ball around a rectangular field called a pitch.

Aberdeen International Football Festival
The Aberdeen International Football Festival (AIFF) was an international association football festival in Aberdeen, Scotland. The festival was launched in 1981. Over the years, the festival has become something of an institution in the city's calendar, bringing together, as it does, young people from a host of other countries, far and near, and the citizens of Aberdeen who turn up, whatever the weather, at Seaton Park to witness and support this unique sporting occasion. Mindful of its motto, 'Football is Fun', the festival is as much concerned with promoting fun and friendship as it is about competing on the football field, although success in that area is also a worthy aim in the development of our adults of the future. The event ended in 2010 after a decline of attendances and financial difficulties.

It is located in the southern part on the east coast of Streymoy. To the northwest of the city lies the mountain Húsareyn, and to the southwest, the Kirkjubøreyn. They are separated by the Sandá River. The city itself has a population of 13,957 (2022), and the greater urban area has a population of 21,078, including the suburbs of Hoyvik and Argir.

In 1856, the trade monopoly was abolished and the islands were left open to free trade. History Early history It is not known whether the site of Tórshavn was of ...
