[1] Idrottsföreningen Kamraterna Timrå was formed on 9 January 1978 as a spin-off from Timra IK[2] with the emphasis from an early stage on youth development.

IFK Timra is now one of Norrland's largest football clubs, with around 1,200 members, of whom about 600 are active participants.

The Youth Section currently has approximately 500 active members who are catered for by around 30 teams, from the age of 8 to junior level.

Since their foundation IFK Timrå has participated mainly in the middle divisions of the Swedish football league system.
