EH Aalborg is a handball club from Aalborg and Nørresundby, Denmark. Currently, EH Aalborg competes in the women's Damehåndboldligaen. The home arena of the club is Nørresundby Idrætscenter.[1]
History
[edit]The club was founded in 2014 under the name Team Abybro as a fusion of Visse IF and Åbybro HK. The intention was to create a top women's team around Aalborg and in general the Northern Jutland region, after Aalborg DH went bankrupt in 2013.[2][3] In their first season they started in the Danish 2nd Division, the third tier of Danish handball, where they were promoted in the first attempt. In their second season, their first in the 1st division, they changed the name of the club to EH Aalborg. They also started playing matches at Nørresundby Idrætscenter in Nørresundby, as well as at DGI-Huset in Aabybro.[4]
In 2017-18 the club was promoted to the Damehåndboldligaen, the top division in Denmark.[5] They were however relegated again only two years later, after they were in last place when the league was cancelled with 7th rounds to go due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Skanderborg Håndbold and EH Aalborg both had 7 points at the time, but EH Aalborg had a worse head-to-head record.[6] The club protested the decision, proposing instead that there should be no relegated teams and that the 2020-21 season should have 15 teams instead. Their proposal was ultimately rejected.[7]
In 2024, the club secured promotion for the Danish Women's Handball League after four years in the Danish 1st Division.[8]
