History
IBF Falun was founded in 1993 through a merger of Falu IBK, established in 1985, and HSK Falun, founded in 1986.
In the 1993–94 season, the men's team won Division II and was promoted to Division I Västra, which was then part of the top tier. The team struggled in the highest division, repeatedly avoiding relegation due to league reorganizations, but eventually, in the 1999–00 season, they were relegated. The club returned to the top division before the 2004–05 season.
Starting in 2010, IBF Falun entered a golden era, sharing championship dominance with Storvreta IBK only. Key figures during this period included Alexander Galante Carlström, Rasmus Enström, Emil Johansson, and Johan Samuelsson. During this time, Falun won the Swedish Super League seven times (2012–13, 2013–14, 2014–15, 2016–17, 2019–20, 2020–21, 2021–22) and set a record with five Champions Cup titles (2013, 2014, 2015, 2017, 2023).
