TheSwedish Indoor Athletics Championships (Swedish:Svenska inomhusmästerskapen i friidrott) is an annualindoor track and field competition organised by theSwedish Athletics Association, which serves as the Swedishnational championship for the sport. The competition started as a non–official standing jumps contest in 1960, held at theJohanneshovs Isstadion inStockholm. It expanded to a full indoor track and field competition in 1966, then later attained national championship status in 1984.[1]
In earlier years, a smaller number of women's events were held. As the scope of women's international athletics increased, so did the national indoor programme. The women's1500 metres was included in 1971, the3000 metres in 1979, thetriple jump in 1990, and thepole vault in 1996. The championships now has an equal number of men's and women's events.[1]
