Welcome to Eken Cup For the 27th time we have the pleasure of inviting handball players to Stockholm and Eken Cup. We are continuing the Development of the tournament into making it an international event. For this year's tournament interest has come in from as far away as Taiwan. The Mini-Cup is also this year played in separate age classes on smaller courts in the special "Mini Park". We will offer a few surprises and hopefully the same lovely weather as we are used to at "Eken". Welcome to Stockholm’s great handball party.
Everything in one place Eken Cup is played on the Gubbängs field South of Stockholm. There are around 35 courts in one location. In the middle bleachers surround the "Centre-court" for the audience for the finals. All games are played on a grass surface that is of finest quality and survives most weather-conditions. The time of year most of the time gives us warm and clear weather. It takes no more than five minutes to walk through the whole tournament grounds. No busses are needed. Clubs with many teams can easily watch each other’s games. To cheer for your friend in the other club-teams really unites the club.
Accommodations Eken Cup primarily uses the schools in the vicinity for accommodations. Mealtimes are served in Gubbängs-skolan, which is right next to the field. Our goal is that all accommodations should be within walking distance of the Gubbängs field.
