Budapesti Spartacus SC (women's handball)

Budapesti Spartacus Sport Club is a Hungarian women's handball team from Budapest, that play in the Nemzeti Bajnokság I/B, the second tier league in Hungary. The club was formed in 1954 and soon found themselves on the top. Spari, as the fans call the team, have won all but one league titles between 1960 and 1967, and in addition, they have won two domestic cup titles in 1963 and 1968. They also enjoyed a good run in the European Champions Cup, having been marched to the finals in 1965, only to fall short against HG København.

In the seventies the club have fallen back, and eventually slumped to relegation in 1975. However, the team promoted back immediately and under the guidance of head coach István Szabó a new success period has begun. Spartacus have won the national championship title in 1983 and 1986, and lifted the Hungarian cup trophy in 1988. Beside the domestic hit they also took the EHF Cup Winners' Cup in 1981.

From the nineties the club slowly relapsed and turned into a mid-table team. Parallel to this, their financial potential is narrowed and it all ended up in a relegation to the Nemzeti Bajnokság I/B in 2007.

Since they are co-operating with another Budapest-based club, Pénzügyőr SE, the team is officially known as Pénzügyőr-Spartacus SC.
