The club was founded as Tamar Valley Cannons in 2000, named after the nearby River Tamar and its valley, dividing the counties of Devon and Cornwall. In 2007, the club changed its name to Plymouth Marjon Cannons after moving to the College of St Mark & St John (often abbreviated to Marjon) and becoming a part of its "Hub Club", operating a development system in partnership with the college.
