Fótbóltsfelagið Giza, commonly known as FF Giza, was a Faroese football club from Tórshavn.

History

The club was founded in 2008 by some friends, who played for another club called NÍF (Nólsoyar Ítróttarfelag, founded in 1968) at the time.

Along with dreams of building a new superpower in Faroese football, these young men wanted a place to call home.

The club has initially played its home matches in Argir before moving to Tórshavn.

Its first official season was in 2009. In 2011, FF Giza won the 3. deild title, the first trophy in the club's history, and was promoted to 2. deild.

However, before the start of the 2012 season, the club merged with FC Hoyvík to create Giza Hoyvík.

Stadium

FF Giza played its home matches at Gundadalur's lower field (Niðari vøllur) in Tórshavn, with the capacity of 1,000.

Previously, the club played its home matches at Inni í Vika in Argir.
