Årsta Swans became the fourth team to join the Stockholm Australian Football League in 2009. The team is a mix of Swedish, Australian and other nationalities. Its a social league with a BBQ after most games.
Why play Aussie Rules in Stockholm?
We welcome any and all interest, whether to play, train or watch. The league has something to offer everyone, from those that enjoy a kick around the park and to keep fit, players who have played other sports, like handball, football (soccer), hockey, rugby or other team sports, or even an experienced Aussie Rules player.
We play the majority of our matches at the lovely Årstafältet, which is very easy to get to from Gullmarsplan. The ground’s a 5 minute walk from the nearest Tvärbana (tram) stop at Valla Torg. If you’re coming from Gullmarsplan, get off at the back end of the tvärbana, go under the tracks and walk straight ahead. Cross the road and continue straight ahead another 500m until you reach the parklands. Check the map below for the rough location of the training and match-day fields.
