Asker Fotball is thefootball department of Norwegian sports clubAsker SK fromAsker.
The women's football team is one of the most successful clubs ever in Norway, with sixtop flight championships and fivecup championships. Due to financial difficulties at the end of 2008, the team's licence to play in theToppserien was revoked; the team members then joinedStabæk IF's football group,Stabæk Fotball, which set up a new women's team.NFF gave Asker's place in the Toppserien to Stabæk Fotball. Asker's second team became Asker's first team, playing in the2. divisjon, and they now have a recruiting arrangement with Stabæk Fotball.
The men's team currently play in the2. divisjon, the second tier of theNorwegian football league system.
The men's team played in theNorwegian top flight between 1951 and 1959. In 1951 they were runners-up in the Norwegian cup.
The women's team won all its league matches in the 1998 season.[citation needed] The men's division did the same thing in 2005, though in the3. divisjon.[citation needed]
On 13 July 2012, four players – one of them from Asker – were arrested by police due to match-fixing allegations in games involving Aker andFollo FK.[1] Asker's 7–1 loss toFrigg was deemed suspicious because of the odd scoreline and the substantial bets placed on the game.[2]
