Idrettslaget Bergen Håndball (founded in 1969 as Fyllingen Håndball and on 20 May 2010 as Fyllingen Håndball Elite - previously known as «FyllingenBergen») is a Norwegian handball club from Bergen, which plays in REMA 1000-ligaen, the top division in the country, since their promotion in 2023.[1]

History

The handball department of Fyllingen Idrettslag was established in 1969, but their breakthrough came when the men's team was promoted to the best league in 1991. They earned a silver medal in the Norwegian cup in 1994 and in 2005 they saw success again when they ended 3rd in the Norwegian league, earning in a bronze medal.

The club took league gold in the 2008/09 season, and participated in the EHF Champions League during the 2009/10 season.

In the 2009/10 season, the team took playoff gold, after beating Runar in the final.

Midway through 2010, Fyllingen Håndball Elite («FyllingenBergen») was established as a separate club, by separating the elite effort for men from the broadside and women's handball in Fyllingen Håndball.

The club was cup champion in both 2012 and 2013, while receiving silver in 1994, 2008 and 2015.
