History
editThe Swedish Super League was founded in 1995 under the name Elitserien. It then replaced the Division 1 league as the high level floorball league of Sweden. Between the seasons 1995–96 and 1998–99 the league was divided into a northern and a southern group. Since the 1999–2000 season, it is a national league.
In March 2007, it was decided that the Elitserien will comprise 14 teams from the 2008–09 season. In May 2007, the name of league was changed from Elitserien to the Swedish Super League.
Mika Kohonen holds the record for points in one season (107 points in 29 games) and also the all-time record for points.[3]
Season structure
editIn the regular season, taking place approximately from September to March, all teams play each other twice, once at home and once away, resulting in a total of 26 rounds. At the end of the regular season, the top eight teams advance to the playoffs, which usually start in March and culminate in April. The quarterfinals and semifinals are played as best-of-seven series. The final is played as a single decisive match, known as the Superfinal. This is usually held at the Stockholm Globen Arena, together with the final of the women's Swedish Super League. The bottom two teams are relegated to the lower division, Allsvenskan.[4]
