History
Slagelse Forenede Håndboldklubber was created by a merger of the two clubs Slagelse HK and Marievang IF who each had their own success, especially on youth level. Slagelse HK's women's team was promoted twice to the premier division around 1990, though the team was relegated the following season on both occasions.
In 1997 the two clubs merged under the name Slagelse FH and in early 2000 the club signed a deal with
Anja Andersen to help the club achieve promotion to the premier division.
