Vipers Kristiansand is a handball club from Kristiansand, Norway. They currently compete in REMA 1000-ligaen, the top division in the country, since its promotion in 2001.

They claimed there first Norwegian Championship in 2018, defeating 18 times-in-a-row champions from Larvik HK.[1] For the first time in the club's history, they qualified for the 2018–19 Women's EHF Final 4 in Budapest, where they took the 3rd place and a historic bronze medal.[2]

Another historic event happened on 30 May 2021, when they won the 2020–21 Women's EHF Final 4 in Budapest,[3] for the first time in the club's history. The following year they succeeded again, becoming the first Norwegian team to win Champions League two years in a row.
