== Sport == The major sports venue in Toftir is the [[Svangaskarð]], the first of its kind in the Faroe Islands. Like most Faroese settlements, Toftir used to participate in the National [[Rowing (sport)|Rowing]] sport of the Faroe Islands, but ceased participating in this sport in the 1980s. The village's [[association football|football]] team, [[B68 Toftir]], was established in 1962 and has won the Faroese league 3 times, in 1984, 1985 and 1992. The local [[Swimming (sport)|swimming]] club ''Flot'' was established in 1984; it participates in the national swimming competitions in the islands. In 2009 a [[Volleyball]] team was established in Toftir; in 2010 the name ''Ternan'' was chosen for the team. Toftir is also home to one of the pioneering [[chess]] clubs in the islands, ''Tofta Talvfelag'' which has won the Islands' Chess Championships once. The Toftir Boat Association (''Bátafelagið'') was established on 13 March 2005, and two months later the first Boat Festival was held in Toftir; it is now held every year on the first weekend of May.
