Men's team

IF Boltic was for a number of years the most successful bandy team in Sweden and also one of the best in the world.

IF Boltic was founded in 1946 in Herrhagen in Karlstad. Originally, the club did not only play bandy, but had also sections for team handball and football (soccer). The name Boltic was created due to the interest for British football, by adding the beginning of Bolton to the end of Celtic. Together, this makes Boltic.

In the early and mid-1980s IF Boltic dominated Swedish bandy and became Swedish champions eight times from 1979 to 1988, all years except for 1986 and 1987. Another national campionsip was won in 1995. The team also won the World Cup a number of times.
