Background

Akropolis IF was a sports club which was founded in Stockholm in the spring of 1968. Basketball started in the autumn 1968 followed by football in the spring of 1969. Youth activities commenced in 1975.

The club formerly had close affiliations, since terminated, with other Stockholm football clubs such as AIK and BP .

In 1987, Akropolis advanced for the first time to Division 3. In 2006, the club made it to the second division, where they have stayed since. In 2012, Akropolis was relegated to Division 2, where they stayed until 2013 when they were once again promoted. In 2014, Akropolis was promoted from Division 2 to Division 1 again. As newcomers in Division 1, Akropolis secured qualifiers to Superettan in their second last game against IFK Luleå.
