[edit] History
The club was founded in 1948 by a group of pupils (the "students") of a public secondary school (The Instituto Ramiro de Maeztu) in Madrid.
By the time when the first Spanish-wide season-long championship was organized in 1955, by the Spanish Basketball Association (FEB), it was one of the six clubs participating to that tournament, as second best team from Madrid. Since then, it has always participated at the top Spanish championship. It is one of only three of such clubs, together with Real Madrid and Joventut.
It is also one of two only Spanish basketball clubs with teams both at the top male and female Spanish championships.
