The club was founded in April 2010 by among others Head Coach Pete Duncan, entering the Men's National League in September as one of four new clubs to the league in the following season.[1] The club received lottery funding - Awards4All late to help support capital costs of club equipment. The club is affiliated with Basketball Scotland, and fully supported by Active Stirling and sportscotland. The Knights have since developed a highly successful junior development program of over 500 members, as well as regularly producing players who represent Scotland. The success of the junior program is also a curse for the Senior team as often the best young players move onto the elite under-19 academies in England and abroad.[2][3] In recent years, they have been one of the top clubs at U12, U14, U16 and U18 level with coaches Les McGlasson and Cory McCabe (National Team coach) enjoying success.
The club are based at The Peak Sports Village in Stirling. It is a purpose built sports facility at Forthbank and was opened in 2008 following an investment of over £27 million, and has a capacity of 400. It has some of the best facilities for sports, including basketball, in the whole of Scotland.
