2010 Toppserien

(Redirected from Toppserien 2010)

The 2010 Toppserien was the twenty-fourth season of top-tier women's football in Norway since its establishment in 1987. A total of twelve teams contested the league, consisting of ten who competed in the previous season and two promoted from the 1. divisjon. The season ran from 5 April to 11 November 2010,[1] and was won by Stabæk, their first ever title.[2] As champions, they also qualified for the Round of 32 of the 2011-12 UEFA Women's Champions League.

Stabæk completed the entire season undefeated, and were confirmed as league champions on the penultimate day after beating Trondheims-Ørn 3–0, at the same time as runners-up Røa lost 0–4 to Kolbotn.[2] The roles were thus reversed from the previous season, when Røa won the league ahead of Stabæk. Kolbotn once again finished third after winning 2–0 against Arna-Bjørnar in the final round.[3]

Fløya were the first team of the season to be relegated, on 30 October.[4] They would have been joined by newcomers Donn, whose licensing application for the 2011 season was denied on 4 November for financial reasons.[5] Those same reasons, however, lead to Donn being declared bankrupt six days later.[6]

Linderud-Grei, founded in 2006 by Linderud IL and SF Grei to promote women's football in Groruddalen,[7] played in the top flight for the first time. They finished second to last in the standings, but retained their Toppserien spot because of Donn's bankruptcy and demotion.[5] It was the first time since 2007 that a newly promoted team had avoided relegation.

As of 2010, the women's football club Team Strømmen are affiliated with Lillestrøm SK and have changed their name to LSK Kvinner.[8] This is the second instance in Norway of a leading women's club becoming affiliated with a leading men's club, the first occurring in 2009 when Asker Fotball relocated to Bærum and became Stabæk Fotball.
