Léttir (Icelandic pronunciation: [ˈljɛhtɪr̥]) is an Icelandic football club located in Reykjavík. They currently play in the 4. deild karla (fifth tier) league, and participate in the Icelandic Cup.[1] Originally a club based in Laugardalur in Reykjavík before being folded in the beginning of the 21. century.

Léttir was reestablished in 2009 as a “reserve” club for Íþróttafélag Reykjavíkur. Léttir has since played in the lowest tier of the Icelandic football league system.

Stadium

Léttir play their home matches in the astroturf Léttisbúr (Léttir Cage), which is located at ÍR-völlur ground in south-east Reykjavík. Owned by 2. deild karla (third tier) club Íþróttafélag Reykjavíkur. The stadium's capacity is 800.[2]

The name Léttisbúr or the Léttir cage stems from the tall surrounding fence around the pitch.
