Assyriska Föreningen i Norrköping, often called Assyriska IF, was a football club from Norrköping, Sweden. It was founded in 1977 to serve the local Assyrian community. In 2021 they merged with IK Derik and Azech SF to form ADAS United, so Assyriska IF no longer exists as its own club.

The club gathered players, officials and supporters from many nationalities, not just Assyrians. They mostly played in the middle and lower levels of Swedish football, and at times competed in Division 2 Södra Svealand, which is the fourth tier in Sweden. Home matches were held at Mamre IP in Norrköping. Assyriska IF was affiliated with Östergötlands Fotbollförbund (Östergötland Football Association).

Note: In 2006, league restructuring created a new division at Tier 3, which shifted some divisions down a level.
