IFK Kiruna is a sports club in Kiruna, Sweden. It was founded in 1907.

Between 1975 and 1986, the ice hockey section played mostly in the second-level Swedish Division 1. They had qualified for the 1975 Kvalserien, but failed to earn promotion to the Elitserien. During the 1987-88 season, the hockey club became independent from the sports club, and played under the name Kiruna HC.

In 1988 the now-independent hockey club merged with Kiruna AIF to form Team Kiruna IF.
