History

[edit source]

JIPPO was formed in 2001 after the merger of JiiPee and Ratanat – both playing in the Kakkonen (third level), the division Jippo played its first four seasons from 2002 to 2005.[2] The team was promoted to Ykkönen for the season 2006 after winning the eastern group of Kakkonen and beating Klubi-04 2–1 on aggregate in the promotion playoff. Arpad Mester scored the winner goal. After 9 years of playing in Ykkönen, JIPPO relegated back to Kakkonen for the season 2015, winning promotion back to Ykkönen after the 2020 season.

During 2022–2023, JIPPO competed in Kakkonen. For the 2024 season, the club won promotion to the new second tier Ykkösliiga, and at the end of the season surprisingly finished 3rd in the division. Since January 2025, the club is called Jippo without the capitalization. In April 2025, Jippo won its first Ykkösliigacup title.[3]
