Background

[edit]

Österåker United FK (as of 2023) currently plays in Division 2 Norra Svealand which is the fourth tier of Swedish football.[2] They play their home matches at Österåkers Friidrotssarena in Åkersberga.[3]

The original club (IFK Österåker FK) was founded after two local clubs (Runö IF and Åkersberga IF)[4] merged in 1928. But in 2022, in anticipation of the 2023 season, the club merged and rebranded together with another local team,[5] Åkersberga BK (founded in 1973).[6] IFK Österåker FK was renamed Österåker United FK while Åkersberga BK was renamed Österåker United BK and became a "B-team".

The club is affiliated with Stockholms Fotbollförbund.[7]
