FK Bodø/Glimt is a Norwegian football club from the town of Bodø that currently plays in Eliteserien, the Norwegian top division. The club was founded in 1916. Its nickname is the original club name: "Glimt".
Bodø/Glimt are the reigning champions in Norway after winning 2021 Eliteserien. They also have won the now defunct Northern Norwegian Cup nine times, Norwegian Cup twice, the Norwegian top division twice, in 2020 and 2021, and finished second in 1977, 1993, 2003, and 2019.
Glimt is known for the yellow kits and the huge yellow toothbrushes that the supporters carry to the matches — a supporter symbol from the 1970s. In the beginning of the 2000s, Bodø/Glimt was one of the top teams in Norway, but was relegated at the end of the 2005 season. After two years, on 12 November 2007, the team returned to the top division again, following a 4–2 aggregate victory over Odd Grenland in a promotion playoff. After being promoted to the top flight ahead of the 2018 season, the club has experienced the greatest success in its history, winning the league twice in a row, reaching the quarter-finals of the UEFA Europa Conference League in the 2021–22 season and reaching the play-off round of the Champions League the following season.
Their supporters are known as "Den Gule Horde" (Norwegian for The Yellow Horde).
