Atlético Westra is a Norwegian team based in Sandnes in the region Rogaland managed by Espen_sko. The team was founded on April 21th in 2007, then by the name of Kyrkjevollen Vikings.
History
Kyrkjevollen Vikings finished their first season as 3rd. In the next three seasons the team managed to finish 3rd twice and won once. In their first season in 6th division they finished 2nd. They finished 2nd in the tabel the next two seasons aswell before they managed to finish first and enter the 5th division in their fourth season in 6th division. For the first time in the history the club didn't manage to finish in top 3 in their first season in the 5th division as they ended at 6th place. The following season in 5th division they ended surprisingly at 3rd place, but then again in the next two seasons they fell down from the top 3 as they finsihed 4th and 5th. After the bad 5th-place-season the club managed to make two top 2 seasons in-a-row and came all the way to the sixth round in the cup! The following season Atlético Westra were outstanding at the top of the league as they became champions whit 7 points ahead of the second place. This was their first championship in 7 seasons.
Atlético Westra then faced fourth divition for the first time in the history and ended on a surprisingly second place. Westra was predicted as a mid-table team before the sesaon, but surprised everyone and finished second best with 8 victories, 1 draw and 5 losses. All though Atletico Westra surprised in the league they did disastrously bad in the cup as they were beeten out in round three, which was the worst in five sesasons. Atlético Westra were predicted to become the winners in the following season, but ended up as number 7! The board of the club felt they were forced to sell the squad to avoid a economic crises and ended therefor at 7th place. The club was relegated for the first time in history. Not surprisingly they were relegated the following season. Altético Westra were then back to 6th division, 11 years after they got promoted from 6th to 5th division.
After 4 years Kyrkjevollen Vikings changed their name to FK Tåfis, and 10 years later they changed their name to Atlético Westra which is the current name of the club.
