As Spring arrives in the Nordic countries, three start their football league seasons within a week of each other. The Swedish Allsvenskan kicks off on Saturday 4 April, with Norway’s Tippeligaen following close behind on Monday 6 April, and the Finnish Veikkausliiga starts the following Sunday 12 April.

Are you planning on enjoying some early spring sunshine supporting your football team this year? What hopes and expectations do you have for the campaign ahead? Maybe you play football yourself and would like to tell us about your experiences of being a footballer in Scandinavia, Iceland and Finland? What are your favourite memories of watching or playing the game? Whether cheering on HJK Helsinki in Finland, Rosenborg BK in Norway or Malmö in the Swedish top flight, we would like to hear from football fans around the world.

You can share your photos and experiences of football in the Nordic countries with us by clicking on the blue ‘Contribute’ buttons. Or if you’re out and about you can download the GuardianWitness app or look for our assignments in the new Guardian app. We will feature a selection of the best contributions on the site.
