Handball Hamburg is a handball club from Germany, located in Hamburg. Currently, Handball Hamburg competes in the 3. Liga Nord. The full name in German is Handball Sport Verein Hamburg e.V. but the club has traditionally been called HSV Handball, HSV Hamburg or just HSV.
Handball Hamburg is the former handball category of VfL Bad Schwartau and the HSV Lübeck, connected in 1999. In 2002 they were relocated to Hamburg in order to grow and renamed. After the relocation they had financial troubles and almost lost licence for the German First League of Handball.[3] With the investment of the new president Andreas Rudolph in 2005, the club was able to focus again on the gaming operation.
Although known locally as HSV Hamburg, the club is not a division of Hamburger Sportverein, they had the rights to use their logo and their abbreviation for publicity purposes. The rights for the name and logo were rescinded when the team was disqualified from the Handball Bundesliga[4]
On 20 January 2016, their license was removed due to violations, and as a result Handball Hamburg are not allowed submitting licence application to participate in games in either First or Second Handball Bundesliga during 2016/17 season.[2] As a result, the club was relaunched under a new crest, colors and new way of addressing the team, from HSV Hamburg to Handball Hamburg; although the official name was kept the same.[4]
