Östers IF

[1] In 1968, their first season in Allsvenskan, Öster became the first team ever to win the national title at their first attempt (newly promoted IF Elfsborg won the league in 1961 but had played in, and been winners of, the championship in the past).

During the 1950s and early-1960s the club made a push to raise the level of football by inviting and playing against foreign teams such as Flamengo, Juventus and Fluminense.

Success in the promotion playoffs would instead come six years later in 1967 when they beat IK Brage in the deciding game in front of a home crowd of 26,404 people.
