History
The club was founded in 1981, and played in the Eredivisie in its first season. Home games were played in Sporthal Sportlaan and Sporthal de Slenk. With coach Ton Boot the club experienced its best years: the team won the championship 6 times between 1989 and 1998. Den Helder won the NBB Cup in 1992. In 2005, the club was forced to leave the Dutch Basketball League because of a shortage of money. The club played a few years in an amateur competition. Den Helder returned to the professional level in 2007, but after two seasons the club was declared bankrupt.
In 2012 the club was refounded and entered the Dutch Basketball League as the Den Helder Kings. Before the 2014 Playoffs, the name of the club was changed in Port of Den Helder Kings after the club started a conjunction with the Port of Den Helder.
In the 2014–15 season, financial problems troubled the Kings once again. The team had a 200,000€ deficit in their budget and in December the club was declared bankrupt. All results of the team were removed and the Kings were expelled from the DBL.
