The Greenlandic Football Championship (, ) is the premier men's football competition in Greenland. It was established in 1954, and since 1971 it has been organised by the Football Association of Greenland. This association is not affiliated to FIFA or to any continental confederation.
B-67 is the most successful football team to have won the championship.
Format The championship is often called an unusual and unique tournament as the finals last only one week. This is because football clubs in the large country are so far apart. Greenland has no roads between cities, so expensive air or lengthy sea travel is needed. Therefore the competition has several regional qualifiers, hosted at a single location, before the finals of 8 teams (as of 2022) are hosted at a single location, which changes year-on-year. These locations have included Ammassalik, Nanortalik and Kangaatsiaq.
