History

[edit]

The team was first established in the 2021-22 season and started its activities in the Turkish Basketball Second League, the lowest tier of professional leagues. The sole purpose of the team is to provide infrastructure services to Fenerbahçe Beko.

In addition, in accordance with the sponsorship agreement with Safi Holding in the 2021-2022 season, the team started to be known as Fenerbahçe Koleji Safiport in the league.[2] The team finished 2nd in Group B of the Turkish Basketball Second League in the 2021-2022 season and qualified directly for the Round of 16. At the end of the Round of 16 matches, the team beat its rival Saray Spor 1953 with a score of 2-1 in the series and made its name in the Final Group. Completing the Final Group undefeated, the yellow-dark blue team advanced to the semi-finals and beat its rival Kastamonu Yurdum GSK 74-60 in the semi-finals, thus enlisting its name in the Türkiye Basketbol Ligi for the next season. The team ended the season with the title of champion by beating its rival Çağdaş Bodrum Spor with a score of 75-65 in the match that will determine the champion of the 2021-2022 Turkish Basketball 2nd League on 30 April 2022.[3]

Before the 2022-2023 season, the agreement with Safiport, the name sponsor of the team, was terminated and as a result of the name sponsorship agreement made with DS Energy before the new season, the name of the team became Fenerbahçe Koleji DS Energy.[4] The team continues to compete in the Türkiye Basketbol Ligi since 2022-2023 season. Fenerbahçe Beko basketballers Mert Emre Ekşioğlu, Ömer Ege Ziyaettin and Yiğit Hamza Mestoğlu play for the team by duel license.

In the 2023-2024 season, name sponsorship agreement made with Novotel before the new season, the name of the team became Fenerbahçe Koleji Novotel.[5]
