History edit
Viimsi JK was founded in 2016,[1] when HÜJK Emmaste, a club founded in 2000 that represented the Hiiumaa island, and Viimsi MRJK, a club which focused on youth football and was founded in 2007 by Martin Reim, merged. The new club inherited Emmaste's league spot and most senior players, while youth players, management and the stadium were provided by MRJK.[2]
In 2021, Viimsi JK finished first in Esiliiga B and gained promotion to Esiliiga, the second-highest division in Estonian football. After finishing in second place in the 2023 season, the club faced Tartu Tammeka in the top flight promotion play-offs, but lost 1–6 on aggregate.
