Piteå Idrottsförening, commonly known as Piteå IF, is a Swedishfootball club located in Piteå that currently competes in Sweden's top-division women's league, Damallsvenskan.
The sports club was formed on 24 May 1918 but did not take up men's football until 1920 when they united with their local rival club IFK Piteå, which then was dissolved. The women's team was founded in 1985. Piteå IF's female section is currently playing in the highest league, Damallsvenskan, which it reached for the first time in 2009.[2]
