Handball Club Astrakhanochka is a Russian women's handball club from Astrakhan established in 1993. It has played in the Russian Super League since 1999, and in 2004 it made its debut in EHF competitions. It reached the EHF Cup's semifinals in 2014 and the Cup Winners' Cup's quarterfinals in 2007.[1]

In reaction to the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, the International Handball Federation banned Russian athletes, and the European Handball Federation suspended the Russian clubs from competing in European handball competitions.[2]
