History

Randers HK was founded in 1996 as a collaborative effort between several smaller clubs from the Randers Municipality to create a handball team that could represent the region at the top level.

In 2000, they reached the final of the Women's EHF Challenge Cup. In 2002 they won their first medal in domestic championship a bronzemedal finishing third.

The season 2009/2010 was the greatest in the history of the club, Randers HK finishing runner-up in the domestic championship GuldBageren Ligaen and winning the Women's EHF Cup.^[1][2] In 2011/2012, they finally won the Danish Championship. In 2016, they lifted the Danish Cup trophy.

In November 2022, the club decided to declare itself bankrupt after failing to raise over DKK 5 million. The club was then withdrawn from the league with immediate effect.^[3] However, the club managed to restart in the 2nd division. For the 2024/25 season, the club played in the 1st Division, but they were relegated immediately the season after.^[4]
