1.FC Korinth was founded on 21 October 2006 by the owner and manager Per Pedersen. Before that, it took a year to build all the facilities, find players, coaches and other staff. The stadium construction was completed just a few days before the first match. The club started competing in the Danish Division 9 and played the first match on 22 October 2006 (4-0 against Ø-holdet).
