'''B68 Toftir''' is a [[Faroe Islands|Faroese]] football [[Football team|club]] based in the village of [[Toftir]] in Betri deildin.

==History==
After being promoted to the [[Faroe Islands Premier League Football|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 [[Tvøroyrar Bóltfelag|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.
