The official fan club was called FCKHFC (FC København Håndbold Fan Club).[2]

History

The team was founded on June 7, 2002 after FC Copenhagen had acquired the playing licence of former Danish champions Frederiksberg IF.[1] Both the men's and women's team played regularly in the top flight. The Danish handball icon Anja Andersen was brought in as the head coach.[3] The clubs biggest achievement was winning the Danish Men's Handball League in 2007-08.[3]

After the 2009–10 season, Parken Sport & Entertainment returned the license to Frederiksberg IF.[4] The male team squad became a part of AG København, when they fused with AG Håndbold.[3] The women's team, both players and coaches, were released of their contracts.

AG København then went on to win two Danish Championships, before they declared bankruptcy and became a part of KIF Kolding København.[5][6][7]
