About Us

1996:

The Ayr Basketball Club was originally instigated as the Digital Basketball Club in 1996 by a small number of employees of Digital Equipment Corporation (Scotland). It rapidly outgrew the confines of the company as new non-employees began to come along to training.

 

1997:

The club joined the Strathclyde Basketball Association and has been participating in competitive basketball since the 97/98 season.

 

1999:

In the 1999/2000 season the club was renamed from Digital BC to Ayr BC and the team took the name Ayr Storm. The club was now truly independent from its roots.

 

2005:

The club won its first (and to date only) trophy
