History
editThe club was founded in 1983. Before, there was a team as part of BV Noordkop, however the ladies team decided to establish a separate club to further its ambitions.[1] Since then, the team has played in the Dames Eredivisie.
Since the 2021–22 season, the team plays as Den Helder Suns, adopting the same name as the men's professional team from Den Helder.[2] The organisations stayed separated from each other.
