Fotballklubben Haugesund is a professional football club that represents the city of Haugesund in Tippeligaen.
The club was formed on October 28, 1993 out of the amalgamation of Djerv 1919 and SK Haugar. In 1997 the team won promotion to the top tier. But it was a struggle in the top-flight and after three campaigns there, Haugesund was relegated to Adeccoligaen where the side languished for 10 years. The year of 2007 saw the team progress to the Norwegian Cup Final but they were defeated finalists. In 2009 the Arabs went up into the Premier League as champions of Adeccoligaen.
The team performs in white and blue. All home games are played at Haugesund Stadion which can hold up to 8,800 spectators.
