## History

The Kortrijk Spurs were founded after a merger between K Basketteam Kortrijk and BC Kortrijk Sport took place in 2019.[3] The same year, the first men's team promoted from the Top Division Men Two to the [Top Division Men One](/source/Belgian_Second_Division_(basketball)), the Belgian second level.

In the Spurs' second season, [Christophe Beghin](/source/Christophe_Beghin) (former three-time Belgian Player of the Year) was announced as the new head coach.[4] They managed to reach the finals of the Top Division I in 2022,[5] eventually losing to [Guco Lier](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Guco_Lier&action=edit&redlink=1).[6]

From 2021 to 2023, the sponsorship revenues of the Spurs were doubled tenfold, while several [West Flanders](/source/West_Flanders) investors stepped in as well.[7]

The last team from Kortrijk to play in the Belgian top division, was IJsboerke Kortrijk during the 1970s. The biggest feat of the team was their victory of the [Belgian Cup](/source/Belgian_Basketball_Cup) in 1976.[3] In January 2023, the Spurs announced they are for a license in the [BNXT League](/source/BNXT_League) starting from the [2023–24 season](/source/2023%E2%80%9324_BNXT_League).[1] In May 2023, they received their license for the 2023–24 season.[8] On 12 May 2023, the Spurs defeated Donza in the final of the [Top Division Men One](/source/Top_Division_Men_One) season and won the second division title.[9]

Following their promotion, Chairman Steve Rousseau stated the team aimed to play for the national championship at one point, and was hopeful for a [Belgian Cup](/source/Belgian_Basketball_Cup) victory as soon as in 2025.[7]
