Karlstad BK was a Swedish football club located in Karlstad, Värmland County.[1] The club was affiliated to the Värmlands Fotbollförbund.[2] They played their home matches at the Våxnäs IP and Tingvalla IP in Karlstad.[3]

History

Since their foundation on 19 October 1923, Karlstad BK has participated mainly in the second and third tiers of the Swedish football league system. In 1934, the club merged with Karlstads IK to form Karlstads BIK, which lasted until 1963.[4]

From 2000 to 2007, Karlstad BK was playing in Division 4 Värmland which was the fifth tier and then the sixth tier from 2006. Promotions in 2007 and again in 2009 have enabled the club to restore some pride, especially as they pipped local rivals FBK Karlstad to the play-off spot. From 2011 to 2013, and then in 2019, the club played in Division 1 Södra, the third tier of Swedish football.[4]

They merged with Carlstad United after the 2019 season to form IF Karlstad Fotboll.[5]
