Encyclopedia
Dunaújvárosi Női Kézilabda Sport, formerly known as Dunaferr, is a Hungarian
women's handball
club from Dunaújváros
, that plays in the Nemzeti Bajnokság I
.
The team enjoyed their best spell between the mid 1990s and the mid 2000s, during which period they won five Hungarian championship and five Hungarian Cup titles, and set a unique record of winning all three major continental competitions. Kohász, as the fans call the club, first won the EHF Cup Winners' Cup in 1995 and captured the EHF Cup
title three years later.
In 1999 they lifted the EHF Champions League trophy as well, after beating Slovenian side Krim Ljubljana
in the finals. Dunaferr, playing in front of their fanatic fans, have secured a two goal advantage for the rematch, which ended in a 26–26 draw, and that was just enough for the Hungarians to celebrate a famous success. To make the silverware collection complete, they also took the EHF Champions Trophy in that year.
