In the same year they took part in the second edition of the FIBA ​​EuroCup Challenge, after having taken part in the Korać Cup several times in the 1990s , and reached the Final Four tournament of this competition. After a narrow victory in the semi-finals against the hosts Tuborg Pilsener SK from Izmir , they lost the final against the German representative MBC Weißenfels with 68-84. This competition was then discontinued after five events in 2007. In 2006 one achieved his greatest national successes when, after winning the national cup competition, he could also win the Supercup game at the champions Le Mans Sarthe Basket with one point difference.
