Lemvig Basket is a Danish basketball club based in the small town of Lemvig. The club was founded in 2007 as an independent club.[1]

Since then they have steadily improved, and they are currently the top overall Danish basketball club for both men and women. The women's team have been promoted to the Dameligaen, the top league in Denmark.[2] while the men's team have, for several years been between among the top teams in DBBF Herrer Div.1 (2nd best level in Denmark). It maintains a high level of internal competition while offering players at all levels an opportunity to enjoy basketball on teams composed of less experienced Danish basketball players for both sexes.[2] The club focuses on giving younger players an opportunity to improve and this principle is strongly supported by its experienced professionals. Lemvig Basket is a very active club in both sports and social aspects of life and is organizing Denmark's largest basketball tournament, The Limfjords-cup.[3]

The club was founded in 2007.[1]

In 2017 the club won their first trophy, when the women's team won the Danish Cup, beting Virum Go Dream in the final.[4]
