Today there was a reception for the new general secretary of the Faroese Confederation of Sports (ÍSF). From the many applicants, the choice fell on Tórshavn Municipality’s head of IT, Petur Mittún. Petur is especially well known as a handball player, and at one time he played in the top Danish division. In recent years we have seen him in charge of H71’s first men’s team.

The new general secretary post brings many exciting challenges. One of the most exciting tasks will be to make the Faroe Islands host of the Island Games once again, and 2023 is thought to be a good bid.
All of us at FÍF warmly congratulate Petur Mittún, wish him the best of luck in the job, and look forward to working well together.

This was a big day for ÍSF, and many people turned up to welcome Petur. This historic photo of one current and five former ÍSF presidents was taken just before everyone headed home. That has never happened before.
