IFK Stockholm is multi-sports club in Stockholm, Sweden. It is most known for its football team.

Background

The club was formed 1 February 1895 as IF Kamraterna (IFK) by two young students, Louis Zettersten and Pehr Ehnemark, and was the first IFK club. The club soon changed name to IFK Stockholm to differentiate it from the other IFK clubs that were formed in various towns in Sweden.

The club had minor successes in the early days of Swedish football, but from 2008 to 2010, resided in Division 5, part of the regional leagues of the Swedish football league system. The club is affiliated to the Stockholms Fotbollförbund.[1]

The club also sponsors bowling and swimming. It formerly also sponsored ice hockey and played its home games at the Hovet, formerly known as Johanneshovs Isstadion. It also played bandy, a sport in which it was the runner-up for the Swedish Championship in 1910. The men's bandy team has played seven seasons in the Swedish top division.[2]
