Argja Bóltfelag is an Faroese football club based in Argir. They are back in Effodeildin in 2013, which is the highest division in Faroese football, they came in as runners up in second place of 1. deild in 2012 after playing there for two years. They play their home games at Vika Stadium in Argir. ==History== Argja Bóltfelag (or AB) was founded on 15 August 1973 by Danish resident Johnny Nyby and other football enthusiasts on Argjum. In the spring of 1974 the first board was elected. This composed of Johnny Nyby, Chairman; Fróði Olsen, Co-Chairman; Sonja á Argjaboða, accountant; and Kristian Arge, board writer. Other members of the board were Erling Olsen, Sæmundur Mortenen and Jens Hansen. In the same year the team started in the regular competition. Initially the team didn't have very good training facilities and rented a school playground. Later they got a small ground to train on, but it was only 20 x 40 m² in measurements. There was no football field on Argjum at the time, but they were allowed to loan the Gundadalur, which belongs to HB and B36. AB practiced and played their matches at the Gundadalur and this helped the team to survive. In 1983 a football field was built on Argjum and now had better training facilities. Having their own ground helped the team a lot and in 1985 a new two-storey house was built for AB. AB got the lower storey and the second storey was used as a school classroom. In 1998 artificial grass was laid on the football field. For some years, the second storey remained as a school classroom for young children. By 2004 AB had grown enough to get the whole house. From 2000 Tórálvur Stenberg became the chairman fof AB and he brought them from the 3rd division all the way to Formuladeildin in 2006. Sadly, he did not see AB play in Formuladeildina, because he died of cancer in the autumn. Stenberg was the first to become an honorary member of the team. He put his life and soul into Argja Bóltfelag. Two of his sons, Jónas and Heðin Stenberg, play for AB. AB's first season in the Vodafonedeildin wasn't very successful and were relegated along with VB/Sumba, finishing in 9th place. Though in the season afterwards, they bounced right back and were promoted again after finishing runner-ups in 1. deild. They currently still play in the Effodeildin. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Argja Bóltfelag」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
