København Håndbold is a Danish women's handball club from Copenhagen, Denmark. It was established in the winter of 2013. It took over the league licence from Frederiksberg IF and is playing in the Bambusa Kvindeligaen.
The club is owned by Kim Mikkelsen.
History The company behind the club was founded on January 24, 2013, and on February 16th they took over the licence of Frederiksberg IF, allowing them to play in the Danish Women's Handball League. FIF had just been promoted the season prior.
Their first season was the 2013–14 Damehåndboldligaen. The team finished 13th, one position above the relegation play off.
In the 2016-2017 season they reached the championship playoff for the first time, but lost the final to Nykøbing Falster Håndboldklub.
The club won the Danish Championship for the first time in the 2017/18 season, after first winning the first leg and later the decisive DM-finals against Odense Håndbold. The year before, the team had also played in their first domestic championship final, surprisingly beating FC Midtjylland Håndbold in the semi final.
In May 2025, just before the third place playoff match, the club announced that they had to significantly reduce the player budget going forward.
