Drammen Fotballklubb was a Norwegian association football club from Drammen Municipality, founded in 2008. It last played in the 2016 3. divisjon. The club dissolved after the 2016 season.
The club was established on 23 August 2008 as a merger between àskollen FK, founded 1992, and Drammen FK, founded 2005. àskollen had experienced a series of promotions from the Seventh to the Third Division, and was the better team, with Drammen FK playing in the Sixth Division. However, as the club was aiming to become the second best team in the city of Drammen behind Strømsgodset IF, the name Drammen FK was chosen. As its home field, Drammen FK chose Strømsgodset's stadium Marienlyst stadion. Team colors were changed from yellow and black to blue.
Several other clubs based in Drammen were asked to take part in the merger: ÃÂ ssiden IF, Konnerud IL, SBK Skiold, Drammens BK, SK Drafn and Glassverket IF. Of these, ÃÂ ssiden and Konnerud were decent Third Division clubs, while the rest played at lower levels. It soon became clear that these two clubs declined to merge, citing ambitions to succeed and win promotion on their own. The next month, Drafn and Drammens BK declined as well. Both clubs wished to downplay the elite aspect of their own clubs. However, Skiold and Glassverket decided to join, but unlike ÃÂ skollen they continued to exist as independent entities, their tie to Drammen FK taking the character of a feeder club.
In its last month as an independent club, àskollen won its Third Division group, and was pitted against Førde IL in a qualifying playoff for the Norwegian Second Division. A two-leg playoff, the first match was played in Førde, where Førde IL won 2âÂÂ0. However, Førde's aspirations were crushed in the second leg, where àskollen won 8âÂÂ1, thus securing promotion to the Second Division.
Ahead of the 2009 season Drammen FK recruited a new head coach, HÃÂ¥kon Grøttland from Manglerud Star. Their squad was strengthened mainly with youth players from Strømsgodset and Stabæk. Grøttland is the only full-time employee involved with the men's team. Coincidentally, the season opener of 2009—and the first game of Drammen FK as a club—was against the reserve team of Strømsgodset. It ended with a 2âÂÂ5 loss, with Drammen playing the last fifteen minutes with a striker as goalkeeper. In its first match in the 2009 Norwegian Football Cup, it beat Fram Larvik 2âÂÂ1 after extra time. In the second round Drammen was defeated by Mjøndalen IF with 1âÂÂ5. In the summer of 2009 the team signed Erik Mykland. Nothing helped, and the team ended in last place and was relegated. HÃÂ¥kon Grøttland left the club to become player developer in Buskerud District.
The club finished 14th and last in the 2016 3. divisjon. The club dissolved after the 2016 season.
