Ground: Vitavallen

Visits: 1

Date: 17th May 2026

Match: Backaryd SK - Fjärdsjömåla AIF 2-4 (Division 6 Blekinge)

Attendance: 35

Sunday meant a return to nice and sunny conditions and I decided to visit a game of football today as well. In Blekinge I only have six grounds/idrottsplatser left to visit and Vitavallen in Backaryd is on that list. At 2pm on Sunday afternoon Backaryd hosted Fjärdsjömåla in Division 6 Blekinge at Vitavallen. It took me just over an hour to drive to Backaryd, a village with a population of 320. I realised the attendance would be quite low but in the nice conditions I was still looking forward to a relaxing afternoon in the sun. The ground has no proper stands but there is a hill on the north side and there were several benches to sit from.

Backaryd are bottom with 0 points while Fjärdsjömåla are top with five consecutive victories and I was expecting an easy win for the visitors. 30-35 spectators showed up and most were actually supporting the visitors. Fjärdsjömåla took an early lead but Backaryd equalised a few minutes afterwards. 1-2 at half-time and in the 2nd half Fjärdsjömåla were clearly the better team and it ended 2-4 at Vitavallen. I have obviously been to football matches with a higher quality but I still very much enjoyed my visit to Vitavallen in Backaryd.
