History

The first CB Coruña club is founded in 1996 as a merger of two teams:

This club would substitute former Baloncesto Coruña CAB, who played its last season in Liga EBA and disappeared.

After staying some seasons at Liga EBA, the club plays LEB League during four years, known as Sondeos del Norte due to sponsorship reasons. In 2002, CB Coruña sells its LEB spot to new Basket Zaragoza 2002. After that, the club continues playing in Liga EBA thank to the promotion of its reserve team.

In 2004 Básquet Coruña resigns to play in any competition due to financial problems but the club comes back in 2005 to Liga EBA.
