History

The club was founded on 4 September 1917 as Malmö Boll & Idrottsförening, or MBI in short. In the early years, the club also played bandy, winning the Scania district championship in this sport in 1930.[2]

One of the biggest moments in the history of the club was when they participated in the playoff to Allsvenskan, the top tier of Swedish football in 1938 against Degerfors IF but lost.

In 1973, the club moved to its present location in the suburb of Rosengård.

In 2001, the club merged with Turk Anadolu FF to create Malmö Anadolu BI, MABI in short.

In 2008, the club was renamed to FC Rosengård.[3]

The club is affiliated to the Skånes Fotbollförbund.[4]
