Éanna Basketball was set up by ex Coláiste Éanna players in the division two Dublin Men's Basketball League in 2005.[2][3] In 2009, Éanna amalgamated with the highly successful underage club Notre Dame, adding a junior programme which grew the club to 13 teams including the senior teams. The 2014–15 season saw the club enter a Senior Men's team into the National League for the first time; the team placed third in its first season.[4] In 2015, the team was elevated into the Premier League.[5] In 2018, the team was demoted to Division One.[6] After winning the National League Division One in 2018–19, the team was promoted back into the Super League.[7] In January 2020, the Super League team made it to the National Cup final, where they lost 78–68 to Templeogue.[8] The team would finish third in the Super League in the 2019–20 season.[9] In January 2023, the Super League team made it to the National Cup final, where they lost 74–69 to Maree.[10]. The super league team won the Northern Conference for the 2022/23 season but were eliminated by the eventual league winners Ballincollig in the Quarter final[11].
