History

SK Brann is a hattrick club founded by Eilanda. This historical moment happened on October 23, 2007. Brann is located in Troms, Norge, and they play their matches at the honorable Brann Stadion. Future stars are coming from their youth club SK Brann Football Academy. The biggest star of SK Brann, Jes 'Kniksen' Steinicke, came from their own youth club. He was born as a natural leader, and has been the captain of SK Brann since he was only 18 years old. The highlight of Brann's history must be in Global Season 51, when Brann managed to secure their place in the fifth division, after going through a qualification game. Unfortunately, they relegated back down to the sixth division the season after.

Early seasons (GS 34-36)

Sportsklubben Brann was founded at a late October evening in 2007 at the local pub by Eilanda, and Eilanda didn't have any high qualification demands, the only thing he was looking for was players that were able to kick a football. There were only twenty men present at the pub that evening, so Eilanda decided to offer everyone a place at his new team. Everyone accepted the offer, and Sportsklubben Brann was born. Brann originally took over the spot of GS 1905, and played their first season in VII.851. Their first season went exceptionally well, and they ended on the third place, and had the same amount of points as the second place, but had a worse goal difference. The next season went far better, and Brann promoted to the sixth division, with a twelve point gap to the third place.

Their debut season in the sixth division wasn't exactly a holiday for the Brann squad, and they got more or less slaughtered in every fixture.

but  they played in the seventh division, and almost got promoted to the sixth division again, but the ended on a third place. Manager Eilanda had done many great boughts, for example Jari Faassen, Ciro Musolino, and many more.

Season 25

Next season managed Brann to get promoted to the sixth division again, and both the club and the fans was in the skies. But unfortunately, Brann started the season with many losses, and there was on a eight place by the half of the season. But they managed to put themselves together, and Brann climbed on the table. But this happened to late, and Brann ended on a seventh place by the end of the season.

In the over twenty seasons long history of SK Brann, they have only won two official trophies. In the early seasons, Brann didn't have the economical muscles they have today, and most of the players were Norwegian amateur players which almost hadn't touched a football their entire life. But some of them were motivated, and can today look at themselves as some true club legends, like Jørgen Bråthen or Noah Kløvedal. They had to spend five whole seasons in the seventh division before they promoted to the sixth division, but after that, they never relegated back down. But it took ten seasons before Brann promoted to the fifth division, but had to take the tough way back down to the sixth division the following season. The Brann squad were set for direct promotion, and they managed to do that, without having to play a qualification game. And everyone involved in the club were sure Brann had established themselves in the fifth division when they managed to survive for the first division, but in the upcoming season, Brann ended on the eight place, and were directly relegated back to the sixth division.

Fan Club

Brann's fan club is called Brann Bataljonen Bergen, and are often abbreviated to only BBB. Currently there are about two thousand members in BBB, but the number have earlier been as high as 2,500 members. BBB have been involved in only a few rivalries through the years, but their clashes with the Stord supporter group Vika-mafiaen are known considered to be one of the worst in the lower divisions of Norway.

Badge and colours

Badge

The base of the badge has always been what it is today, a red coloured, eye shaped figure with "BRANN" written in the middle of it. But through the seasons, the badge has gone through some minor outer modifications, in order to keep it fresh, and to mark some anniverseries.

The official colours of SK Brann have always been red, white, and black. Traditionally, the home kit has always been red and white, and the away kit have been all black.
