Official siteDebreceni Vasutas Sport Club is a Hungarian women's handball club from Debrecen, that plays in the Nemzeti Bajnokság I. Nicknamed Loki, the team was founded in 1948 as a department of the multi-sports club Debreceni VSC. Seven years later they have won their first ever Hungarian championship title after beating two of their three opponents in the championship final, including title holders Csepeli SK. However, this achievement remained the lone success of the club for a long time, after they got relegated in 1959 and spent the subsequent twenty years in the second division.[1]
Promoted back in 1979, their brightest period came under the management of Ákos Komáromi, between the late eighties and mid-nineties, during which time they won the Hungarian championship, five Hungarian cups and two consecutive EHF Cups. The latter one is an exceptional success, no other teams have ever defended their title in the EHF Cup.[2]
In the following years the club lost many of their key players and their financal options narrowed as well, which resulted a significant setback. The team were on the brink of bankruptcy, when András Gellén, a businessman and die-hard DVSC fan took over the club in May 2009.[3]
Gellén has his own conception, that builds solely on Hungarian players and promotes the youngsters. To fulfil the club's long term plans, he also invested into a new arena for the handball academy, which was finished in January 2011 and cost around €1.4 million.[4]
On 27 June 2011 the club have agreed on a one year sponsorship deal with a local shopping mall Fórum, and since then the team is officially known as DVSC-Fórum Debrecen.[5]
