Porsanger Idrettslag is a Norwegian multi-sports club from Lakselv, Finnmark. It has sections for association football, team handball, track and field, Nordic skiing, floorball and table tennis.
The club was founded in 2005 as a merger of the multi-sports club Lakselv IL and the football club Porsanger FK. The latter had been founded in 1995, whereas the former was founded in 1922; the club now counts this as the founding year.[1]
The men's football team currently plays in the 3. Divisjon, the fourth tier of Norwegian football, where it has played since its 2005 foundation. In 2006 the team contested a Playoff to the 2. Divisjon, but lost to Tromsø IL 2 on aggregate.
Lakselv IL had been a 3. Divisjon fixture from 1992 to the 1999 season, when the team was relegated. Porsanger FK was more successful, with a stint in the 2. Divisjon from 1996 to 1997 and thereafter a steady run in the 3. Divisjon. Porsanger FK also contested a Playoff to the 2. Divisjon in 2001, but lost to Salangen IF on aggregate. The best known player was Lars Iver Strand.
