changed its legal name to Stockholm TFF. After several years of financial difficulties, the board of IK Frej decided to withdraw from
Division 1, the domestic third tier, to join Division 4 instead. Affiliated club Hammarby IF in
Allsvenskan, which had provided resources in the form of funds and loaned players to IK Frej for several years, then decided to continue operations in a new form. The club's vision is to provide experience and training for young players, who can be temporarily loaned out and recalled.
The new name Stockholm TFF was, however, not accepted by the Stockholm Football Association since its abbreviation, STFF, was too similar to their own. On 4 March 2021, the board instead changed its name to Hammarby Talangfotbollsförening Herrfotboll, or Hammarby Talang FF for short, which was then re-incorporated.
