History
It is a part of Spårvägens GoIF, which started in 1919. The swimming department started in 1946 by the Swedish champion on 200 metre and 400 metre breaststroke Gunnar Sulling and Gunnar 'Hacke' Gustafsson for the employees of Stockholms Spårvägar. Since the late 1950s, the club has been open for persons not working for Stockholms Spårvägar. In 1972, SKK-Spårvägen was started by Spårvägen, Stockholms KK and Bromma SS and lasted during the decade – when it ended, the water polo team remained at Stockholms KK. Spårvägens SF had their first Olympic swimmer at the 1992 Summer Olympics, when Anders Holmertz participated.
