The team was previously part of the top Danish hockey league, but due to its financial struggles, it has declared bankruptcy many times, resulting in its many change of names.

On 29 January 2009, the club withdrew from the Danish Elitserien and filed for bankruptcy on Monday after their two main sponsors pulled out on them.

Part of this vision was to change the organisation and rebuild the club, to one day return to the highest league level.

With the future goal of returning to the highest league, the Hvidovre Fighters decided to stay another year in the 1.division, continuing to build up their team and organisation.
