Copenhagen Cannons was founded on April 22nd. 2015 by Viktor Flyckt, with help from Christoffer Lorentzen and Adrian Petersen.
Initially the team played under the name Copenhagen Vipers. The team was created due to DBBF laws prohibiting a second team from participating in the divisions. However, the team's vision turned into a larger project with the goal of giving young people with a busy sche
dule, the possibility to play the game we love.
15/16
In the season of 15/16, Copenhagen Cannons (Vipers) participated with a first team in Division 3. East. The team practiced twice a week, under coaches Christian Hougaard (HC) and Martin Woergaard (AC). After 24 games the team finished at:
- 1/16 finals at the DBBF CUP vs. Stevnsgade Supermen
- Runner-ups at the DBBF U22 CUP vs. EBAA
- Semi-finals in Division 3. East vs. Holbæk Basketball
At the end of the 15/16 season complications with Virum Vipers emerged, forcing Copenhagen Cannons to search for new partners. One of Denmark's most successful basketball clubs, SISU, offered a deal for the 16/17 season. This resulted in a change of venue and change of name. The new name became Cannons, which is both a part of Copenhagen cultural history and a symbol of the team's playing style. The logo was designed by graphical designer William Larsen Bang.
