What Lindås Waves does

Lindås Waves is a Swedish non-profit amateur floorball (innebandy) sports club founded in 1994, legally registered as Lindås Rasta Innebandyklubb and based in Lindås (Hovås), Västra Götaland. The organization serves approximately 700 active members across men's, women's, and youth teams, with the women's elite team competing in Allsvenskan (second tier) and the men's elite team in Division 1, supported by a full youth pyramid from F10-11 through P19 and a recreational motion program. The club owns Lindås Waves Arena, a physical venue with an attached café that functions as the explicit community meeting place for players, leaders, parents, and youth.

The business is a member-based förening operating under the Swedish Sports Confederation; it has no technology products, no external investors, and 9 employees. Revenue is generated across six streams: annual/seasonal membership fees tiered by team level (Elit, Akademi, Motion, youth tiers), seasonal camp fees (Summer Camp, Halloween Camp, Sports Camp, Easter Camp, Next Level development camp at 1,700 SEK/participant for Summer Camp 2026), corporate sponsorship across general/camp/cup/sustainability partner categories, café and arena operations, "support member" contributions, and ad-hoc sales activities. Operations are run on the third-party SportAdmin platform for member registration and scheduling; match broadcasting is delivered through the federation's InnebandyTV. Distribution is community-led via word-of-mouth, the club's two Instagram accounts, and the website, with physical touchpoints concentrated at the arena.

The club is currently in a deliberate rebuild phase following the 2024 relegation of its women's team from Allsvenskan, branded internally as "Återtåget" (The Return). Coaching has been restructured across the 2024-25 and 2026-27 seasons (Anders Nilsson → Simon Elgan → Andreas Burman), academy production has been formalized through the Damakademi established in 2021, and sustainability initiatives (rooftop solar, equality/mental-health programs, ESG-aligned sponsorship tier) form an explicit pillar of the brand identity.

• IBK Dalen: Established SSL floorball club operating both men's and women's elite programs with comprehensive youth development. Direct peer in running parallel men's and women's teams through academy pipelines.

• IK Sävehof: Top-flight SSL floorball club renowned for elite youth academy production, comparable in its full-pathway model (youth → senior → national team) to Lindås Waves' Damakademi strategy.
