This page, general information about Grótta is available in English. Please click here to change the language. 

The sports club Grótta was founded on April 24, 1967 by Garðar Guðmundsson who called some boys in Seltjarnarnes for organized football training in the summer of 1966.

Grótta's purpose is to offer organized sports and social activities for its members.

Today, there are three divisions within Grótta:
- Gymnastics, handball and football.

All professional registrations take place in Sportabler. More information about the registration process here

Grótta uses the communication program Sportabler, where all training sessions for the relevant category are displayed and in addition most communication with coaches goes through it. 

If you have any questions about the club's work, it is best to contact the relevant coach or head coach via Sportabler or by email.

The sports club Grótta is based on Suðurströnd in Seltjarnarnes. The location on the map can be found here.

Grótta's office is on the 2nd floor of the sports hall and is open every weekday from 13:00 - 16:00.
