history
Årsta SK was founded in 1921. When the Swedish league pyramid was officially introduced in the summer of 1928, the club rose to the third division in 1931. Here the team quickly established itself in the front division. In the 1933/34 season she dominated her third division season with 15 wins from 18 season games and clearly distanced the pursuers Uppsala IF and Westermalms IF . In the second division, the club played against relegation and finished the first season before Åtvidabergs FF and Kalmar FF on the last non-relegation place. In the following season achieved the best result in the club's history with a sixth place in the table, before relegation followed in the season 1936/37 as bottom of the table.
After relegation, the Årsta SK team sat down in the top third of the table, but did not succeed in another relay win and the associated promotion. From the mid-1940s onwards in the table slipping into the middle range, she became the victim of a league reform in the summer of 1947. Due to a reduction in the number of third division relays from 17 to four, the club missed relegation as the table sixth of its season and said goodbye to the higher-class Swedish football.
In the 1940s, the club's ice hockey department took part several times in the Swedish championship , which was then still held in cup mode .
In 1968 Årsta SK merged with local rivals Aspuddens SK to form IFK Aspudden .
