They play in the Allsvenskan and have spent most of their history in the top tier of Swedish football . Their homeground is Borås Arena , where they have played since 17 April 2005 . The club was founded in 1904 by a group of 19 youngsters which all were 14-15 years old . Borås Fotbollslag was formed in Ordenshuset at Landala ( today Knalleland ) on 26 June 1904 . The main protagonist in the formation , Carl Larson , who in addition to football also practiced athletics and wrestling . Claimed the reason was that the main sports club in the city , Borås Athletic and Sports Society , would not exert football in their program . Carl Larson , however , found that there were too many clubs containing the city name Borås which contributed to the name change in 1906 by Riksidrottsförbundet to the current , IF Elfsborg . The name is derived from Älvsborg County where instead of making use of the modern spelling Älvsborg , they used out of the older spelling with an E. The same goes for the club colours , reflected in their crest and kit , yellow and black . Colors that are taken from Älvsborg Regiment , Elfsborg would not only represent a city but a whole region . A recurring motto of the club is Vi Tillsammans ( We together ) . The club 's homeground Borås Arena is also called Elfsborg Fortress , since Elfsborg is Allsvenskan home strongest team in the 2000s ( decade ) .

The current record attendance is 17,070 and was set 4 July 2005 in a game between IF Elfsborg and Kalmar FF which marked the return of both Anders Svensson and Mathias Svensson . The stadium was originally scheduled to be a tournament site for the 2009 UEFA European Under-21 Football Championship , but a sponsorship conflict with Max fast food chain 's location at the stadium and official UEFA sponsor McDonald 's , plus a contractual requirement for official sponsors to have a monopoly over the stadium 's area , and a refusal to close the restaurant led to it losing its status as a site for the tournament . Borås Arena did n't only open a new era for IF Elfsborg but also for other clubs in Allsvenskan , Elfsborg was the first club to build a new arena owned by their investment company . Many other clubs have built new arenas copying the model Elfsborg set up , trying to own their arena which gives big economic resources .

It had 108,334 inhabitants in 2017 .

The HH Ferry route across the sound has more than 70 car ferry departures from each harbour every day . [ citation needed ] Following the Swedish orthography reform of 1906 the spelling of many place names in Sweden was modernized . In 1912 it was decided to use the form Hälsingborg . In preparation for the local government reform in 1971 , Hälsingborg city council proposed that the new , enlarged municipality should be spelled Helsingborg ; this form was adopted by the Government of Sweden from 1 January 1971 . Historic Helsingborg , with its many old buildings , is a scenic coastal city .

The name of this arena has no actual connection to the Olympic Games , but since the modern Olympic 's started in 1896 and Olympia was opened two years later , it seems a possible thought that the name was influenced by the at the time renewed Olympic Games .

In 1958 the stadium hosted two FIFA World Cup matches , and seven matches in FIFA Women 's World Cup 1995 .
