Its current home field is Nordre Åsen, after the club stopped playing at Bislett after the 2012 season. In past decades it has gained a reputation as a talent factory for the larger clubs in Norwegian football, and it has produced several players for the national team such as Daniel Braaten, Daniel Fredheim Holm, Omar Elabdellaoui and Mohammed Abdellaoue. Other notable players include Paul Miller. Skeid played in 1. divisjon in 2009 after a short stint in the 2. divisjon. They finished champions of the Second Group of 2. divisjon in 2008. However, Skeid relegated again to 2. divisjon at end of 2009 season in 16th and last position despite a good start. In 2021, Skeid won 2. divisjon group 1 and was promoted to the 1. divisjon.
In 2021, it was announced that Skeid will inherit “several millions” from the controversial Leif Hagen, also known as "Porno-Hagen". Hagen, who was a fan of Skeid was born and raised in Sagene, Oslo and died before Christmas in 2020 bequeathing a substantial amount to Skeid. In the media, there was speculation in values in the order of NOK 30 million (NOK).
Skeid decided that the money from Hagen will not be used short term, but function as a long-term fund and that only the return of the money will be used to further develop the club and its facilities.
They played in the Norwegian top flight between 1938–1970 (Norwegian League did not play between 1940–1947 due to World War II), 1972–1975 (4 seasons), 1978–1980 (3 seasons), 1996–1997 (2 seasons). Their recent season in the top division was in the 1999 Tippeligaen.

2020 -
Skeid startet the year 2020 with a new head coach, when Gard Holme signed on to lead the squad on January 6. He took over a team that lost 8 players from the most used starting lineup in 2019, and due to a strict economy Skeid only signed new players from 2. and 3. Division.
The season was put on a hold at the start of the year due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and did not start until July, when it started with a reduced schedule. During the season, Skeid played homegames at 3 different venues due to problematic circumstances regarding the artificial turf at Nordre Åsen.
Nonetheless, Holme led Skeid to a promotion playoff in his first season, which they lost against Asker on penalties after both games ended 1-1.
Skeid lost a couple of key players before the 2021 season when Idar Nordby Lysgård (Mjøndalen), Henning Tønsberg Andresen (Ull/Kisa), Taofeek Ismaheel (Fredrikstad) and Hassan Yusuf (Grorud) all left the team, while legendary player Daniel Braathen hang up his boots after a great career.
The ”new” team started the season strong, and it looked like Skeid would challenge for promotion with Arendal and Egersund as their greatest rivals. Head coach Gard Holme also changed the formation from the previous year and played more of a 3-4-3 / 3-5-2-formation this season.
Top scorer Johnny Buduson got injured midway through the season, and Holme chose to play youngster Abel Stensrud at his spot for the rest of the season. That turned out to be a great choice, as Stensrud scoret 19 goals on the last 12 games and ended up top scorer in the division.
In the end of October Skeid clinched promotion back to the OBOS-ligaen (Division 1) after a 12-0-win over Rosenborg 2 in front of over 800 people in the crowd at Nordre Åsen. It had been a tough season with both Egersund and Arendal fighting for promotion, but in the end Skeid ended up on top.
Skeid started the year of 2022 rough as top scorer Abel Stensrud and Simen Hestnes both left the team when their contracts expired, and they signed for Odd and KFUM Oslo shortly after. Head Coach Holme brought in Bendik Rise (Hødd), Morten Renå Olsen (Strømmen) and Sulayman Bojang (FK Haugesund) to the during the winter.
Skeid started the season badly, and halfway through the season Skeid was in 15th place in the table with only Stjørdals-Blink behind them and Grorud a couple of points in front of them. During the summer break Skeid brought in a couple of players on loan: Kristoffer Hoven (Sogndal) and Simen Kvia-Egeskog (Viking) where both loaned in, while Maxwell Effiom (Sandnes Ulf) and Per-Magnus Steiring (Kongsvinger) signed on, Effiom for two years while Steiring signed on for the remainder of the season.
After the summer break, things turned for Skeid, and they got 22 points from the remaining games, and ended the season in 14th place, which meant relegation playoff against Arendal from division 2. Skeid went on to beat Arendal 6-0 at home and 2-1 away to remain in OBOS-ligaen another year.
During the winter break before the 2023 season Skeid again lost a couple of key players when captain Fredrik Berglie departed for Sandefjord while young talent Jakob Napoleon Romsaas departed for Tromsø up north. Skeid brought in Fredrik Flo (Sandefjord) and Torje Naustdal (FK Haugesund) to bolster the squad, while Kristoffer Hoven and Per Magnus Steiring both signed two year deals the 2022 season concluded. Skeid also brought in goalkeeper Simen Vidtun Nilsen on loan from Sarpsborg 08 as the new first choice in goal.
Midway through the season Skeid where at relegation point in the table after 11 points on the first 15 games, and with team still on relegation in August, head coach Gard Holme resigned. His replacement for the remaining of the season was experienced head coach Arne Erlandsen, but he couldn't save the team from relegation. After only a single win and eleven losses on his twelve games in charge, Skeid ended the season rock bottom with only 14 points on 30 games.
In December 2023 Skeid made history when 31 year old Vilde Mollestad Rislaa was announced as new head coach, the first female head coach for the men's first team in the club's 107 year old history.
