Background The first federation to organise a national football championship in Greenland was the GIF (da Grønlands Idrætsforening), a general sports federation that organised more than just football tournaments, founded on 3 September 1953 at a meeting attended by eleven clubs from Upernavik, Uummannaq, Qeqertarsuatsiaat, Qasigiannguit, Aasiaat, Sisimiut, Maniitsoq, Nuuk, Paamiut and Qaqortoq.https://www.rsssf.org/tablesg/groenlchamp.html Greenland – List of Champions Stokkermans Karel Pierrend José Luis Schöggl Hans Kubusch Lars Medaer Jan Outlaw Brian Rota Davide 20 Aug 2015 RSSSF 12 October 2015 The 1954–55 tournament was the first national football tournament and GIF continued to organise the competition, usually announced as Fodboldturneringen, Grønlandturneringen or Fodboldmesterskab i Grønland, until 1970. For the first decade of its existence, the tournament was held sporadically, with iterations often taking more than a year to complete. In 1971 a football specific federation, the Football Association of Greenland (Greenlandic: Kalaallit Nunaanni Isikkamik Arsaattartut Kattuffiat; da Grønlands Boldspil-Union), was founded, and took over the organisation of the tournament.

As a result of this, the timing of matches was such that teams in certain areas were able to play their matches significantly more quickly than those in others.https://www.rsssf.org/tablesg/groenl60.html Greenland 1959/60 Stokkermans Karel 26 February 2015 RSSSF 12 October 2015 As a consequence of this, by the end of 1959, the various rounds of the competition do not tie to any overarching time frame and, by the end of 1959, Malamuk and K-33 had qualified for the semi-finals whilst the remaining quarter finals were still to be played.
