Boldklubben af 1967 (also known as B67 or B67 Nuuk) is a sports club from Greenland based in Nuuk. They compete in football, badminton and handball. In 2016 they won the Coca Cola GM by defeating Nagdlunguaq-48 3–1. In the 1980s they were a small club in the heart of Nuuk. They mainly focused on youth development during the mid-1980s, significantly helping this side's rise to fame.
B-67 took part in many competitions but went without a trophy for 25 years. In 1993, the club began to grow with the signings of elite Nordic players and training facilities grew, massively impacting the squad. With better coaching, this B-67 side won 85% of their senior matches and played in 8 finals after 1988, yet winning none.
Many players from B-67 Nuuk have played for the Greenland national football team, with 8 in the 19 man squad that got seventh in the 2023 Island Games.
B-67 played several matches against teams in Iceland and the Faroe Islands with an average win rate of 74%. They had success in Copenhagen, Reykjavík, and Tórshavn. The U-19 team had many successes in Malmö particularly, with a win rate of 84%.
Since then, they have gone on to win many championships (a record 13 times) making history in the country's capital. They have proven successful against local rivals, with a current win rate of 82%, the highest being at 91% in 2008 and lowest in 2020, 78%.
