In their first season, they played in 2. deild and finished 3rd losing the promotion on goal difference. In 2013 and 2014 they finished 3rd again, finally achieving promotion to the second tier in 2015.[1] They spent three seasons in 1. deild, being relegated back to 2. deild in 2018. After the end of the 2018 season, the club announced it would be renamed to FC Hoyvík.[2]

The club played its home matches in Gundadalur's second field until June 2017, when Hoyvíksvøllur (also called J&K vøllur because of sponsorship reasons) was opened. Its first match in the new field was a 4–1 win against TB/FCS/Royn II.[3]
