Vaksala SK

What Vaksala SK does

Vaksala SK is a Swedish non-profit sports association (ideell förening) founded in 2002 and headquartered in Uppsala, Sweden, operating as one of Uppsala's largest multi-sport clubs with 18 employees. The club's core offering spans three disciplines: football (fotboll), floorball (innebandy), and futsal, with programs covering every age from toddlers (Valles Rörelsekul, ages 2-4) through youth competitive teams, adult senior squads (Herr A, Dam A), veterans, and players aged 65+ (walking football Gåfotboll), including inclusive programs such as blind football (Vaksala-5) and parafotboll (Vaksala-Tigrarna, Mini-Tigrarna).

The club runs its football operations out of Årsta IP, which received a new artificial turf (KG) in June 2026, and its floorball program from IFU Arena and Lindbacken Idrottshall. The men's floorball team qualified for Allsvenskan for the first time, a notable competitive milestone. A deepened collaboration with IK Sirius, established in Fall 2025, creates joint women's football teams at F15/16 Regional and F17 SM Division 1, with the joint F16 side winning Dalecarlia Cup 2026. The club also organizes Uppland's largest youth football tournament (Parkcupen), summer football and floorball camps, an annual community running event (Gränbyspringet), and operates the VSK Minibussar transportation service and a merchandise shop.

The business model is non-commercial: revenue is generated through membership fees, sponsorships (ICA Kvantum, Actic, Svenska Spel Gräsroten), and fundraising activities including Christmas tree sales and merchandise. The organization is volunteer-governed via a board (styrelse) with section committees for football and floorball. The club operates entirely within Uppsala County, with no external investors, parent entity, or disclosed financial statements. No proprietary technology stack is present; the digital footprint consists of a Svenskalag.se website, social media channels, online membership registration, and federation system integrations (FOGIS, IBIS).
