It is a part of the APOEL multi-sport club. APOEL is one of the most successful basketball clubs in Cyprus with an overall tally of 11 Championships, 12 Cups and 11 Super Cups.

History

APOEL was formed in 1926, but the basketball team was formed in 1947.[2] The team's first ever basketball title was the Cypriot Super Cup that won in 1972. At the end of the same season (1972–73), APOEL won their second title, the Cypriot Cup. The team achieved to win their first ever Championship title three years later, in season 1975–76.

The 90's decade was the most successful for APOEL. The team won 4 Championships, 5 Cups and 4 Super Cups during that period, including one double on the 1995–96 season.

After winning the double in 2001–02 season, APOEL won again the Championship in 2008–09 season, after 6 years without winning any title. The next season (2009–10), the team won their second consecutive Championship title and reached the quarterfinals of the FIBA EuroChallenge, marking their most successful campaign in the European competitions.[citation needed]

After four years without winning any title, APOEL won again the Championship in 2013–14 season, which was their 11th league title in their history. During 2015–16 season, APOEL won their 12th Cypriot Cup trophy, thirteen years after their last Cypriot Cup title.[3] The next season (2016–17), APOEL returned in the European competitions after a five years break and reached the second round (Last 24) of the FIBA Europe Cup, marking one of their most successful seasons in the European competitions.[4][5]
