The sports holiday in Sweden has its origins in the so-called coking law that was introduced in 1940 to save on the heating of the schools. The sports holiday in Sweden lasts for a week during February or March, between weeks 7 and 12.

Jönköping is one of the counties that is only out now week 7.

Activities and travel

Several municipalities have sports law programs with different activities for the students who remain in the municipality under the law.
