History

The club was founded in 1946. The handball department was founded in the club in 1949. The club was promoted to the first division in 1957. In 1966, the association won its first medal, a bronze, and in 1968 it won the Finnish championship for the first time. Due to conflicts within the association, which were rooted in the expensive trips of the handball team, the association stopped handball activities in 1974. Thanks to the active handball activists and the goodwill of the member associations of the handball association, BK-46 was able to restart the Finnish series, thus returning to the championship series in the 1976–1977 season. The team returned to the Finnish top in record time and won their second gold medal in 1979. The 1979 gold was the start of a rarely seen dominance as the club won 16 golds and three silvers in 20 seasons from 1979 to 1998. In his ranks with players such as Mikael Källman and Jan Rönnberg. The generation change in 1999 resulted in a silver medal, and in 2000 the club only finished fourth. He came second in 2001, but then won gold in 2002 and 2003, but lost the final in 2004. In 2006, however, the team became champion again. In 2007, the team won a bronze medal, but after that they were not even on the podium for many, many years. The team only became champions again in 2022.[1] The club defended its championship title in 2023.[2] So far, the club is a total of 22 champions and 14 cup winners.
