History

The Swedish Super League was preceded by the Swedish Cup (Svenska cupen), held from 1982 to 1993, which was the world's first floorball competition. It was followed by the Division 1 league, played from 1993.

In 1997, the Elitserien league was established, which was divided into northern and southern groups until the 2005/2006 season. Starting from the 2006/2007 season, the competition became a national league. Before the 2012/2013 season, the name was changed from Elitserien to the Swedish Super League.[3]

Season structure

The season starts with a regular season with 26 games per team, one home and one away against all teams. In the spring a play-off starts with the eight best teams from the regular season. The quarter finals as well as the semi-finals is played in best of five matches, the final is settled in just one. The final is played in Stockholm Globe Arena together with the men's Swedish Super League final. The two last teams play in a relegation league to avoid relegation.[3]
