The Norge Vikings are a club owned and operated in the United States by ZeekLTK who are currently in division V.233. The club is based in Michigan and plays its matches at Fjord Field.
History
The Norge Vikings were formed on Febuary 10, 2004, playing its first season in VI.130 during Season 22. The club finished 4th that season and then managed to beat out the Dallas Red Knights to capture the championship the following season. After earning first place, the Vikings were promoted to V.233 where they have been ever since, finishing 3rd in the inagural season followed by numerous top 5 finishes (but never first) ever since.
The Vikings also field a cricket team in Battrick. That squad competes in the West Indies division III.7. It was founded on April 29, 2005 and has competed in the same division every season so far.
The Norge Vikings have also competed in many cups over the seasons. The team won the Utopia Cup, a minor eight-team competition of teams from NCAA Utopia, in Season 23. The team also entered a Polish Cup (Polonia Cup II) during Season 24, which they fielded mostly reserve squads for. The Vikings were the only non-Polish team in the cup. The team managed to advance past the group stage, but lost in the first knockout round to the cup's eventual runner up, SKS Star.
The Vikings also originally created the Norge Invitational which was held from Seasons 23-26. It was discontinued as the Vikings preferred to compete in the newly formed V.233 Cup and did not even enter the Norge Invitational IV. In the competition, the team failed to advance from the group stage in two of the three appearances (I and III), and were eliminated in the first knockout round, the quarterfinals, in the only competition that they progressed from the group stage (II).
The Norge Vikings have also been a main force in establishing the V.233 Cup, which was first contested in Season 26 by 16 teams from 13 different nations, all of which were in Division V.233 at the time. The Vikings took second place in a group which included teams from Hungary, France, and Croatia to qualify for the knockout stage. There, they upset Hapoel Mishmar, the Israeli V.233 Champions that season, to advance to the semifinals. Their run was finally ended by a German team, the Mystic Knights, who went on to win the championship.
In the 2nd V.233 Cup (during Season 27) the Vikings again qualified for the knockout round by placing second in a group which included teams from Switzerland, Sweden, France, Malaysia, and Poland. The team was eliminated in the knockout round by the Portuguese side Congregação dos Infames, who ended up winning the Cup.
The Vikings participated in the 3rd V.233 Cup during Season 28 as well. The team topped their group that included teams from Holland, Germany, Romania, Poland, and Bolivia. The Vikings knocked out FC Mazepa II from Romania in the first knockout round and then Vienna Bolzers from Austria in the quarterfinals before falling to FC Smuzie from Holland in the semifinals. FC Smuzie went on to beat Teenage Mutants Ninja Turtles from Oceania for the cup's championship.
