The club has played a total of 18 seasons in Allsvenskan, which is the highest level of the Swedish football league system.
The merger did not go smoothly however as the IK Blixt members felt that there needed to be more focus on the football part of the multisport club.
This first golden age culminated in the fourth-place finish two years later but was quickly followed by a relegation followed by a long period of time spent in the second tier.
After spending four straight seasons at such a low level the club brought in Rolf Zetterlund from AIK as their new player manager.
This qualified them to compete in the UEFA Cup on several occasions where they played against clubs like Werder Bremen and Inter Milan.
Much thanks to great team spirit influenced by the manager Lennart "Kral" Andersson", who was very popuplar among the supporters in Serik Fans.
The new chairman Tommy Andersson and the sports director contracted a lot of experienced but controversial players like Dulee Johnson, Jan Tauer and Njogu Demba Nyrén.
