Årvoll has a history of cooperation with other clubs in football. In 2001 it formed the umbrella team Bjerkealliansen, which operated on junior level. Hasle-Løren backed out ahead of the 2009 season. Ahead of the 2003 season Årvoll's senior team gave up its spot in the league system to cooperate on the umbrella team Groruddalen BK. Groruddalen BK became a success, was promoted to the Second Division and contended for the First Division, but after the 2008 season it was over. In the meantime, Årvoll, which had started anew, had climbed back up to the Third Division.Recent seasons
