Handball Club Lada is a Russian women's handball club from Tolyatti playing in the Russian Super League.

Founded in 1998, Lada soon became the leading team in the Super League winning five championships in a row between 2002 and 2006 and a sixth one in 2008. It also built itself a name in Europe winning the 2002 Cup Winners' Cup in its international debut and reaching the final of the 2007 Champions League and the next edition's semifinals.[1]

The following three seasons were less successful, with Dynamo Volgograd retrieving the leading position. On the other hand, Lada won the 2012 EHF Cup,[2] its second international title, while attaining the national championship's bronze in 2009, 2011 and 2012.[3]
