Nacka HK, officially Nacka Hockeyklubb (English: Nacka Hockey Club), is a Swedish ice hockey club based in the Stockholm suburb of Nacka. As of the 2013–14 season[update], Nacka plays in group D of Division 1, the third tier of ice hockey in Sweden.
The club traces its roots to Nacka SK, a sports club founded in 1906 that initially competed in bandy.[2] Nacka SK's hockey department played 23 seasons in Sweden's top-tier league, most recently the 1971–72 season. However, they never won a Swedish championship. Following their failure to achieve promotion to Elitserien (now the SHL) in the 1976 qualifiers, Nacka SK merged with Atlas Copco IF and Skuru IK to form NSA-76. The new club renamed itself Nacka HK in 1980.[2]
Mats Sundin, Marcus Ragnarsson, Johan Garpenlöv, Fredrik Lindquist and Leif Svensson are well known players who have played hockey for Nacka HK or its predecessors.[citation needed]
