Club history

The Eastern Mavericks District Basketball Club was established in 1995 following the amalgamation of the Murray Bridge Bullets and the Mt Lofty Spurs, both of whom were based in the Adelaide Hills and Murraylands region. The Mavericks entered men's and women's senior representative teams into the SA State League, which later became the central conference of the Continental Basketball Association.
The club's first and so far only championship came in 2004 when the men's team defeated the Woodville Warriors 93–80 in the Central ABL grand final.
