History
Founded in 1994. In June 2011, the team promoted to LEB Plata, where it won one Copa LEB Plata and promoted to LEB Oro as winner of the playoffs in 2016.
Despite this achievement, on 23 July 2016 the club announced it could not fulfill the requirements in the league and folded the professional team, maintaining only the youth teams.[2] However, one month later Araberri was allowed to participate in the league and the professional team was reinstated.[3] On 18 July 2017, the club announced it could not fulfill the requirements in the league and it appealed against the decision of FEB.[4] However, they were finally admitted and registered for playing the 2017–18 LEB Oro season.
On July 5, 2019, the club folded the professional team, maintaining only the youth teams.[5]
