Football
The team was promoted to the Norwegian first division in 2003, but was relegated after one season. The club was reintroduced to the second highest flight of Norwegian football, which in the mean time had changed its name to Adeccoligaen, in 2005. After a poor start to the 2006 season, Tromsdalen was in the relegation zone for most of the season. But a very good ending of the season, beating many top clubs, Tromsdalen survived the drop and played in Adeccoligaen in the 2007 season as well. However, they were relegated to Norwegian Second Division in 2007. The stay there wasn't long; Tromsdalen finished champion in Fourth Group of Norwegian Second Division in 2008 and returned to Adeccoligaen for the 2009 season. After two seasons in Adeccoligaen, Tromsdalen was relegated to the Second Division.
In 2011, Tromsdalen scored 105 goals in the Second Division, which is a Norwegian record, and again won promotion to Adeccoligaen.
In 2007 Tromsdalen's women's team played in the women's first division.
