The team used to play under the name VfL Bad Schwartau and was formed in 1863.[1] They played in the Bundesliga until 2002, where HSV Lübeck was formed on the license of VfL Bad Schwartau, and later moved to Hamburg to become HSV Hamburg. This meant that the former 2nd team of VfL Lübeck-Schwartau was now the first team, playing in the Regionalliga at the time.[3] In 2007-08 they were promoted to the 2. Handball-Bundesliga.[3] Since July 1, 2017, the first men's team has been competing under the name VfL Lübeck-Schwartau for marketing reasons.[4]
