Until 2005, the club was organized as handball department of
Reinickendorfer Füchse, which was founded in 1891. For the 2005–06 season, the branding was changed to Füchse Berlin, in an effort to establish the club as a leading sports team of Berlin alongside
Hertha BSC (football),
Eisbären Berlin (ice hockey) and
Alba Berlin (basketball). This coincided with the move to
Max-Schmeling-Halle (Berlin's second biggest indoor sports venue), which is dubbed
Fuchsbau (
burrow in English). The team played in the
2nd Bundesliga at the time. In 2007, the Füchse secured the championship in the
Zweite Handball-Bundeliga, thus advancing to
Handball-Bundesliga, which the club has stayed in ever since. In 2014 the team won the
DHB-Pokal, its first major trophy by defeating
SG Flensburg-Handewitt 22–21. As German cup winners they qualified for the
2014–15 EHF Cup, which they won to gain their first international title. As winner of the EHF Cup the Füchse earned a wild card spot for the
2015 IHF Super Globe, which they also won. In the
2024-25 season they won their first German championship ever. Their coach
Jaron Siewert became the youngest coach ever to win the Bundesliga at 31 years. Despite the previous season's success, the club decided to fire
Jaron Siewert just two matches into the following season along with sporting director
Stefan Kretzschmar after a public disagreement between them managing director Bob Hanning. To replace him, the club hired Danish coach
Nicolej Krickau. ==Crest, colours, supporters==
