The Haasta Disaster was a serious incidence of football hooliganism and violence in Neuvesto, Olmeria. The incident occurred at the conclusion of the 1926 Haasta Cup semi-final between amateur teams Jørpedal FK and Aletv Samfet FK, as a result of unexpected crowd sizes and insufficient police presence. It remains one of the worst instances of footballing violence in Olmerian history, and influenced the introduction of more stringent club regulation, and later the creation and rules of the Olmerian Football Leagues.
