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]
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 2018-19 the club was promoted to the Damehåndboldligaen, the top division in Denmark.[5] They were however relegated again only the following season.
In 2024, the club secured promotion for the Danish Women's Handball League after four years in the Danish 1st Division.[6]
