FK Vidar played their first match against
IF Stavanger on August 15 1906. They lost 1-0. They became members of theNorwegian Football Association in 1909, and won their first league title in 1912 when the junior team became district champions ofRogaland .The club has spent most of its time between the third and fourth tiers in Norway and from 1952 to 1962 they found themselves languishing in the regional leagues. It was not until the 1980s that Vidar began to develop into one of the better teams in
Stavanger . They established themselves as one of the top teams at the Norwegian second tier (Division 2), only just failing to achieve promotion in 1984 and 1986 and finishing among the top four a total of five times. They competed directly against their city rivalsViking FK , finishing ahead of them in the 1987 Second Division, establishing themselves as the top team in Stavanger.1989 saw the beginning of the decline. FK Vidar were relegated to the third tier, and in 2004 they were relegated again to the fourth tier (Third Division) where they have remained to this day.
