History

The sports club Piteå IF was formed on 24 May 1918 but did not take up men's football until 1920 when they merged with IFK Piteå, who then dissolved. The women's team was founded in 1985. Piteå IF's women's department reached the top-tier Damallsvenskan for the first time in 2009. In the 2018 season, they won the Swedish national title for the first time. In May 2024, they won their first Swedish Cup title. On 1 October 2024, it was presented that the coach Stellan Carlsson would leave Piteå IF after 13 seasons to join IFK Norrköping for the upcoming 2025 season. Fredrik Bernhardsson took over the role as coach after Carlsson. The club has one of the largest football youth academies in the county of Norrbotten and is one of two clubs who arrange the large international youth soccer cup, the Piteå Summer Games.
