Men's team

Lugi's men's team were promoted to the top division, at the time known as Allsvenskan, in 1959. In their debut season in the top-flight, Lugi finished second in the league behind IK Heim, making them Swedish Championship (SM) silver medalists. They finished third in both 1960–61 and 1961–62, before being relegated in 1962–63. They were promoted back in 1964, but were relegated after one season. Lugi were promoted to Allsvenskan again in 1971 and have since played every season in the top level except 1992–93. By this time a playoffs had been introduced to determine the champions. In 1978, Lugi reached the finals but were defeated by HK Drott. Two years later, they won their only SM gold so far, winning the final series against Ystads IF. In the following season, they reached the semifinals of the European Cup, where they lost against East German club SC Magdeburg. Lugi qualified for the SM finals again in 1984, but were defeated by HK Drott. In 1984–85, they reached to the semifinals of the Cup Winners' Cup, where they were eliminated by Soviet club CSKA Moskva. A year later they reached the semifinals in the IHF Cup. They lost against Spanish club CB Tecnisa. In 1996, Lugi lost the SM finals against Redbergslids IK. In 2012–13, Lugi won the regular season, but were eliminated by HK Drott in the semifinals. A year later, they reached the final, only to lose against Alingsås HK.
