Tellusborgs IF was formed on 11 April 1921 and brought together several disparate groups of youngsters in Tellusborg after much negotiation. However, controversy about the club name remained and at a Sunday meeting at the Dövas Café on 11 April 1923 the name was changed to IK Tellus.[2]
Since their foundation IK Tellus has participated mainly in the middle and lower divisions of the Swedish football league system. The club currently plays in Division 3 Östra Svealand which is the fifth tier of Swedish football.[3] They play their home matches at the Aspuddens IP in Tellusborg.[4]

* League restructuring in 2006 resulted in a new division being created at Tier 3 and subsequent divisions dropping a level.[6] [7] [8] |
The club is also playing handball. The women's handball team played the 1965–1966 season in the Swedish top division.[9]
