Upsala IF is a Swedish football club located in Uppsala. ==Background== Upsala IF was formed on 11 December 1904 when IK Swithiod and Erikslunds IK decided to merge. It was intended that the new club would be named Allmänna Idrottsklubben, Uppsala, but the club were refused entry into the Riksidrottsförbundet (Swedish Sports Confederation) because of the similarity to a name used by AIK in the northern suburbs of Stockholm. The name was eventually changed at the beginning of 1907 to Upsala Idrottsförening and the club joined the RF. UIF provides a classic example of a multi-sport club with five active sections covering boxing, football / youth football, athletics, handball and orienteering. Over the years the club had as many as 14 sports in its programme including bandy, ice-hockey, chess, tennis, cycling, skiing, walking and swimming but these sports are no longer active. The club currently has nearly 2,000 members. Since their foundation Upsala IF has participated mainly in the middle and lower divisions of the Swedish football league system. Upsala IF are affiliated to Upplands Fotbollförbund. 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「Upsala IF」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
