[1] The club was founded in September 1957 as RK Partizan Zamet by Prof. Stanko Jerger, Josip Šarić and Vittorio Drog.

The next year, they finished second in the Croatian championship and failed to qualify for the First League, being one point behind Partizan Bjelovar.

In their first season in the 1.A HRL, the club finished in third place and qualified for the EHF City Cup, which was their first appearance in a European competition.

The club's best successes were the two cup finals (in 2014 and 2016) and the second place in the league in 2015, in the season in which they fought for the title with Podravka, with a generation which they led by Ćamila Mičijević and Dejana Milosavljević, which they later made the respectable career and won the bronze medal at the 2020 European Women's Handball Championship with national team.

Since the beginning of Croatian handball in 1992, Zamet has competed at the highest level except for four seasons when they were in the second tier.
