Three Swedish Championship golds in a row were followed by a covid break in 2020 for Smederna.

Last year there was a loss in the final against Dackarna and now the top team Smederna has reloaded for a new season that starts at the home arena just outside Eskilstuna on Thursday night, provided that the weather gods want the same thing.

The premiere round starts on May 3 and the playoffs begin with quarterfinals on August 30, according to the planned schedule.
