<p>For youths leisure activity the organized sport is vital. Young people become increasingly sedentary</p><p>and the healths of young people are the various municipalities responsibility. In Eskilstuna, the</p><p>handball is very popular but there are only three grounds that meet the standards of the dimensions of</p><p>a handball pitch, 40x20 meters. The same dimensions are used by floorball. Eskilstuna municipality</p><p>owns one of these, the other two is privately built and owned and the municipality rents time in the</p><p>halls.</p><p>IF Guif and HK Eskil are two handballclubs in the central part of Eskilstuna. They have access to only</p><p>one 40x20 meters pitch that they have to share between their 45 teams. Hence forth the handball</p><p>player’s in Eskilstuna rarely has the opportunity to practise at full-size pitches before they reach junior</p><p>age. In the part of Eskilstuna called Torshälla, the situations for another handballclubb is much better.</p><p>Gökstens BK uses the full-sized Ellfolkarenan together with Torshälla IBK, a floorballclub. The new</p><p>built Ellfolkarenan has been a big boast for Gökstens BK and they are now pleased white their access</p><p>to practice areas.</p><p>Floorballclubs in Eskilstuna have, due to private construction, access to two full-sized halls. In</p><p>addition, they are practising in halls which are just below the authorized dimensions. Despite this, they</p><p>have difficulties to get access to the new hall times to expand their club by starting up new teams with</p><p>practise at attractive times of the day.</p><p>With only three full-sized halls, Eskilstuna is among the big-sized municipalities in Sweden with most</p><p>people per full-sized hall. If a new multipurposearena with three pitches would be built in Eskilstuna,</p><p>the municipality would count themselves by those of the big-seized municipalities that are below</p><p>average of people per full-sized hall.</p>
