History

IL Øygard

Idrettslaget Øygard was founded 7 June 1945 in Fjell municipality at Sotra. 13 June 2007, IL Øygard met Brann in the second round of the 2007 Norwegian Cup. Brann won the game with the score 5–0.[3]

In 2009, IL Øygard merged with Foldnes IL and Brattholmen IL to become Sotra SK. Before the merger, IL Øygard's men's football team played in 3. divisjon (fourth tier), and played their home games at Straume Idrettspark. Their home kits were all-blue and their away kits were all-white.

Football

The men's football team currently plays in 2. divisjon, the third tier of the Norwegian football league system. They promoted from 3. divisjon in the 2018 season. In 2019, Sotra SK's senior football team were offered to join a merger with fellow Øygarden and Sotra clubs Nordre Fjell, Sund SK, Skogsvåg IL, Telavåg IL, Skjergard IL and Nest-Sotra to become a part of the new club Øygarden FK from 2020, but rejected because they wanted to continue on their own.[4]
