History
The club began life in 1968 as St. Andrew's under 14s boys school team. This team was the most successful 15/16-year-old boys handball team of the late 1960s and early 1970s winning the North West of England title on no fewer than four occasions and being runners up in the National (men) Championship twice.[2] Before becoming Liverpool, for much of the 1970s the club played under the name Halewood Forum.[2]
The first major honour for the senior side was in 1983 when it defeated Brentwood '72 Handball Club, 14-13, to win the British Handball Association's British Cup.[3]
Currently Liverpool Handball Club play in the Super 8's Division.
