It also aims to portray how Östers IF has moved from concept to reality with the new soccer stadium.Method - The case study of the project organization in Östers IF where made ??using semi-structured interviews and participant observations. We use herme- neutics to interpret the empirical material we obtained from interviews and observations. A abduction approach has been used when we repeat- edly have been moving between theory and empiricism.Conclusion - Östers IF has been forced to create a corporation, Fotbollsfastigheter i Växjö AB, to able be plan the new soccer stadium and handle the organizational and financial risks that the project will bring.
