Molde FK is an association football club based in Molde, Norway, competing in the Eliteserien, the top flight of Norwegian football.
The club has been a prominent competitor in the Eliteserien, Norway's premier football league.
Founded in 1911, Molde FK was originally named International before adopting its current name in 1915.
Biography
Formation
Molde Fotballklubb, commonly known as Molde FK, was established on June 19, 1911, in Molde, Norway, by Klaus Daae Andersen and a group of local enthusiasts. Initially named International, the club changed its name to Molde in 1915 to better reflect its local identity. The club played its first competitive match on August 5, 1912, against Kristiansund, which ended in a 2-2 draw. Molde FK faced challenges early on, including relegation from the top division shortly after its first season in 1939-40 due to the German occupation during World War II.
Breakthrough
The club's fortunes began to change in the 1960s. In 1964, Molde FK achieved a significant upset by defeating the nine-time Norwegian Cup champions Fredrikstad in the third round of the Norwegian Cup. This victory marked the beginning of a more competitive era for the club, which saw them promoted to the second tier in 1970. Despite fluctuating success in the following decades, Molde FK steadily built a reputation in Norwegian football.
Legacy
Molde FK is recognized as one of Norway's most successful football clubs, having won the Eliteserien league title five times (2011, 2012, 2014, 2019, 2022) and the Norwegian Cup six times (1994, 2005, 2013, 2014, 2021-22, 2023). The club made history by becoming one of only four Norwegian teams to participate in the UEFA Champions League, showcasing its growth and ambition on the European stage. The club's first major trophy was the Norwegian Cup in 1994, and it achieved its first league title in 2011, followed by a historic double in 2014.

Career & Clubs
Molde played in the top tier and appeared among the championship contestants in 1947–48 and 1957–58, but the league was differently organized at the top levels until 1963.
Early years (1911–63)
Molde FK was founded on 19 June 1911 by a group gathered by Klaus Daae Andersen (born 30 September 1873); they named J. Ferdinand Dahl as the inaugural chairman. On a general election on 24 April 1912, it was decided that the club would be named International, perhaps because the opponents were primarily visitors from cruise ships or trading vessels, or that it was to make room for the many Danes who worked in the Gideon engine factory. The same year, on 5 August, the club played its first competitive match, an away match against Kristiansund which ended 2–2. The rising interest and activity in football in neighbouring towns caused the club to change its name to Molde Fotballklubb in 1915. The club played its first season in the top division in 1939–40, but the season was abandoned due to the German occupation and was never completed. In the first post-war season in 1947–48, Molde were relegated from the top flight.
The breakthrough (1964–77)
On 2 August 1964, Molde shocked nine-time Norwegian Cup champions and nine-time Norwegian League Champions Fredrikstad by eliminating them from the 1964 Norwegian Cup in the third round with a 3–2 win at home. Jan Fuglset, Torkild Brakstad and Harry Hestad, amongst others, played at Molde during that period. The club played in local lower leagues, save for a short visit in the top division in the 1957–58 season. In 1970, Molde was promoted to the second tier and played there for three seasons…
