B68 Toftir (Faroese: B68 Tofta Ítróttarfelag; also known as Tofta or just B68) is a Faroese football club based in the village of Toftir on the island of Eysturoy, playing in the Faroe Islands Premier League, the top tier of Faroese football.

Founded in 1962, B68 won the Faroese league championship three times (in 1984, 1985 and 1992) and host their matches at the Svangaskarð stadium in Toftir.

History

After being promoted to the 1. deild (now called Effodeildin) in 1980, they won the league 3 times: in 1984, 1985, and 1992. In 2004 they were relegated. 2005 saw them bounce back to the top flight, coming first in the second division, but they were again relegated from the Premier Division at end of the 2006 season. In 2007, they easily won the second division, and were promoted.

In the 2008 season, they came 6th out of 10 in the Premier League. In the 2009 season, they finished in 4th place. In 2010, they finished as number 7 in the Effodeildin, and in 2011, they finished as number 6.

In 2012, B68 Toftir ended as number 9 in Effodeildin and were relegated: they only needed to score one more goal against TB Tvøroyri in the final round to stay up. They won the match 4–1, but it was not enough. They played in 1. deild in 2013.
