Trelleborgs FF

Trelleborg's football club achieved promotion to the top Swedish league in 1984 and experienced its peak in the early nineties. Notably, they secured third place in Allsvenskan in 1992, their best finish, followed by a fourth-place finish in 1993 and UEFA Cup participation. Despite being often predicted for demotion, the team employed effective but less attractive defensive long-ball tactics in the late nineties. Trelleborg's stadium, Vångavallen, earned the nickname "Tjongavallen" due to the team's style. After a disappointing 2001 season, the club was relegated.

The club gained promotion to the top league for the third time in 2003 just to be demoted directly, since it came after the Trelleborg board hired the Dane Ole Mørk, who was supposed to change the Trelleborg style of play into a more attractive short-passing game. In 2005, TFF finished eleventh in Superettan after a turbulent year, while 2006 became a successful year for the team. Three rounds before the end of Superettan 2006, Trelleborg stood as a clear winner, thus gaining promotion to the 2007 Allsvenskan. Relegation was narrowly avoided with a superior goal difference in 2007. In 2008 Tom Prahl, trainer during the success years in the early nineties, returned as head coach. Trelleborg finished at tenth place in an even season where Rasmus Bengtsson amongst others had an inspiring season. In 2009 the team finished at ninth place after a strong finish. In 2010 the teams tactics changed to a more creative and public friendly game style. The team finished fifth after a strong autumn, their best position since 1993, just to be relegated in 2011, after conceding 64 goals in 16 matches and finishing second last. In 2012, Trelleborg was relegated from Superettan, and the following year they failed to re-qualify for Superettan by finishing third place in Division 1 (Swedish football). In 2014 they only avoided getting relegated from Division 1 (Swedish football) through goal difference, however, the next year they won the league and therefore qualified for the 2016 Superettan. In 2017, Trelleborg finished in third place and qualified for playoffs against Jönköpings Södra IF where they won 3–1 in aggregate and were promoted to Allsvenskan after a 6-year hiatus. The return was short-lived, however, and they were relegated after finishing in last place in the 2018 Allsvenskan.
