After Egaleo's basketball department, founded in 1956, only played in the fourth Greek league in 2001, the club managed to move up to the A1 Ethniki within just six years under the coach Dimitrios Karvelas . The main guarantee for Egaleo's performance was the consistency that the Athens club relied on. After three seasons in the first division, the club was relegated to the A2 Ethniki in 2009 and the B-League in 2010.
