FL Fart - Women's Team

Women's Team

The women's team started in 1982, and was in 2002 promoted to the third tier with a lot of young players. The club decided to focus more on their women's team and won their 2. Divisjon group in 2003, and was promoted to the 1. Divisjon. Fart were originally relegated from the 1. Divisjon in 2006 after a 2–0 loss against Larvik in the decisive match of the 2006 season, but when Liungen decided to withdrew their team, Fart was asked if they wanted to play in 1. Divisjon the next season. Fart won the 1. Divisjon in 2007, and was promoted to Toppserien. Fart only managed to collect one point, a draw against Klepp, in the 2008 Toppserien and were relegated back to the 1. Divisjon. Fart was fighting for promotion in the 2009 season, but was surpassed by Donn after a draw in the penultimate match against Alta and eventually finished third in the league. Fart finished fifth in the 2010 season.

Fart was again promoted to Toppserien in 2011. Fart lost all their matches in the 2012 Toppserien and were again relegated, and beat their own record from 2007 for least points in a single Toppserien season. In 44 matches in Toppserien, the team has 1 draw and 43 losses, and holds the record for most matches without a victory in a row. The team has lost their 27 last matches in Toppserien, which is also a record. The club also has most of the negative records for a women's club. After Kattem withdrew their team from Toppserien ahead of the 2013 season, the Football Association of Norway asked Fart if they wanted Kattem's spot in the top-flight. The club rejected the offer after their players stated that they did not want another season where they lost every match.

Famous quotes containing the words women and/or team:

    Men act and women appear. Men look at women. Women watch themselves being looked at.
    John Berger (b. 1926)

    I doubt if men ever made a trade of heroism. In the days of Achilles, even, they delighted in big barns, and perchance in pressed hay, and he who possessed the most valuable team was the best fellow.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
