The club was founded in 1912 by three 14-year-olds, and had initially teams in football and cricket, until the cricket club split off to become Aalborg Cricketklub in 2001. A tennis department was also added. The Chang football team established itself in the Danish divisions during World War II.[2] The club grabbed the national headlines in 1955, as Chang reached the final of the inaugural Danish Cup tournament,[3] while playing in the third-tier of Danish football. They lost the game 0–4 to that year's Danish championsAGF.[4] In the following decades, the club was a constant part of either the Danish divisions or the Denmark Series, the single exception being the 1980 season in the Jutland Series.[5]
In 2001, former professional footballer Ole Bach Jensen invested in Chang, and a professional team was established under the name FC Nordjylland.[5] In 2004, Ole Bach Jensen withdrew his money, and the club went bankrupt.[6] Aalborg Chang underwent forced relegation from the second-tier Danish 1st Division to the lowest-league Danish Series 6.[5] When former player Per Krøldrup was transferred between professional European clubs in 2005 and 2006, a part of the transfer fee was taken as UEFA-mandated monetary compensation to his youth clubs, giving Aalborg Chang an economic kick-start following their bankruptcy.[5]
