Prior to the 2012-2013 season, the team withdrew from play in Úrvalsdeild kvenna after five of its most experienced players left the team during the summer.[1] In January 2017, the board of KA declared that it intended to break the cooperation between the clubs in handball and women's football. The clubs had been sending a joint team in men's and women's handball called Akureyri Handboltafélag and KA/Þór, and in women's football under the name Þór/KA.[2] In the end, KA reversed on its decision regarding the women's teams[3] but withdrew from the cooperation of the men´s handball team.[4][5] The football team, Þór/KA went on to win the 2017 national championship[6] while the handball team, KA/Þór, won the second-tier 1. deild kvenna in 2018 and gained promotion to Úrvalsdeild kvenna.[7]

On 6 September 2020, KA/Þór won the Super Cup by beating Fram 30-23.[8] In May 2021, the team posted the best record in the Úrvalsdeild for the first time.[9] On 6 June 2021, the team won its first national championship after beating Valur in the Úrvalsdeild finals.[10]

On 2 October 2021, KA/Þór won the Icelandic Cup for the first time after beating Fram in the Cup finals.[11]
