The Swedish Football Association announced the decision on Monday afternoon.

ÖFK is granted an elite license despite its financial concerns.

The Elite Licensing Committee writes in its decision that ÖFK Elite Football meets the financial criteria specified.

When ÖFK had managed to qualify for the Superettan, the work remained to bring in 10 million kroner in a short time.

With the help of a swish campaign, promises from sponsors and a commitment from the investment company Östersund's transfer stakeholders, the club managed to bring in over 10 million kroner.
