AIK Hockey are two time champions of the Swedish Women's Hockey League (SDHL), the top flight of Swedish's women's ice hockey, which the team played in from 2008 until being relegated in the post-season of the 2023–24 SDHL season.[1]
History
AIK gained promotion to Riksserien (renamed SDHL in 2016) in 2008.[2] They won the Swedish Championship twice in their first five top-flight seasons, in 2009 and 2013.
In 2017, the team participated in the Minnesota Whitecaps' tour of Stockholm, playing against them on 22 August.[3]
After dropping in the standings again, down to 7th in the 2017–18 season, Jared Cipparone was brought in to take over as head coach for the club.[4] That summer, the club also slightly increased its investment in its women's side, building a new locker room for the women.[5]
On the 22 February 2020, AIK was eliminated by Djurgårdens IF Hockey in the playoff quarterfinals in a match that went to the third overtime period, passing 100 minutes of game-time and setting an SDHL record for the longest match.[6][7] After the end of the season, 8th-leading scorer in SDHL history Fanny Rask decided to retire from hockey, citing frustration with the financial insecurity in women's hockey.[8][9]
