Hans S�rkij�rvi is a Swedish ice hockey coach and retired player. S�rkij�rvi started his playing career in his hometown team Kiruna AIF in 1973. He only played a few games in the senior team before moving to Stockholm based Djurg�rdens IF. The eight seasons he spent in Djurg�rden included a Swedish championship in 1983. S�rkij�rvi joined S�dert�lje SK for the 1983?84 season, where he also won a Swedish championship in 1985. After six seasons in S�dert�lje S�rkij�rvi ended his elite playing career and started to play in Sollefte� HK where he only stayed for one season. The last club he played for was IFK Liding� during the 1990?91 season. S�rkij�rvi coached S�dert�lje along with Johan Hemlin during two seasons. However, the poor results in the beginning of the 2002?03 season, which was their third season, made the two coaches leave the club. S�rkij�rvi took the job as coach for Djurg�rden's under-18 team for the 2004?05 season. He then replaced Niklas Wikeg�rd in the senior team for the following season. He left his position as coach of Djurg�rden after the 2007?08 season. On 19 March 2008 he became head coach of Skellefte� AIK.
