Strømsgodset Toppfotball is a Norwegian professional football club based in Gulskogen, Drammen, competing in the Norwegian First Division. It is part of the multi-sports club Strømsgodset IF, founded on February 10, 1907. The football team rose to prominence in the late 1960s and early 1970s, led by young striker Steinar Pettersen and his teammates, known as the "Rødgata Boys" (named after their street in Drammen). They climbed from the fourth tier to the top flight in a few years, winning the league title in 1970 and the Norwegian Cup in 1969, 1970, and 1973. The following decades were challenging, with the club even dropping to the third tier in 1986. This setback marked a turning point, and they returned to the top flight in 1989. In 1991, they won their fourth Norwegian Cup, but the 1990s remained turbulent with promotions and relegations, including winning a bronze medal in 1997 despite losing the cup final the same year By 2005, financial troubles almost led to bankruptcy. However, local investors stepped in, sparking a new era of success. Strømsgodset returned to Tippeligaen, won the Norwegian Cup in 2010, and steadily improved. After finishing second in 2012, they secured their second league title in 2013.
