History

[edit]

Yenisey Krasnoyarsk was founded as Polytechnic, and played its games at the Krasnoyarsk State Technical University. The team started off in the lower leagues of the Soviet Union, and its best achievement was winning the USSR Cup for teams in Siberia in 1988. In the 1997–98 season, the team played at the highest Russian level for the first time, when it played in the Russian Super League 1. However, the club was relegated immediately, and the next comeback of the club to Russian the highest level was in 2007, when the team was promoted again.[citation needed]

In the 2009–10 season, Enisey made its first appearance in a European-wide competition, when it competed in the FIBA EuroChallenge. In the 2015–16 season, Yenisey had a chance to win a European trophy, after it had reached the 2016 FIBA Europe Cup Final Four. After two losses, Enisey finished in fourth place.[2]
