Njarðvík men's basketball, commonly known as Njarðvík, is the men's basketball department of Ungmennafélag Njarðvíkur, based in the town of Reykjanesbær in Iceland. It is one of the most successful men's team in Icelandic basketball, winning 17 national championships. The team, then known as ÍKF (Íþróttafélag Keflavíkurflugvallar), was one of the founding members of the Icelandic top league in 1952 and won the first Icelandic men's championship that same year.
