History

During the 1970's Fredericia KFUM, one of the two progenitors to Fredericia HK was one of the best clubs in the country and contributed many players to the Danish men's national team, including Jørgen Heidemann, Flemming Ladefoged Hansen, Søren Andersen, Anders Dahl-Nielsen and Bjarne Jeppesen. The club won 5 straight Danish championships from 1975 to 1979 and won the Danish cup 6 times in 7 years from 1971 to 1977.^[2][3] In 1976 the club reached the final of the EHF Cup, but lost to Borac Banja Luka in the final.^[4]

In 2019, the team promoted to the Danish Men's Handball League after eight years competing in the 1st Division.^[5] A few seasons later, they made their way to the top tier position of the league, surprisingly claiming a bronze medal in the 2023/24 season.^[6] They are currently competing in the 2024–25 EHF Champions League season.^[7]
