[1] After four years of dormancy in the second division, the Beijing Shougang women's basketball team returned to the newly established top league WCBA in 1995.

In May 2011, the team was even more dissatisfied with the "corporal punishment" of the coach, and the whole echelon of training broke out.

However, the team rose rapidly in the subsequent 2011-2012 season, when the Beijing women's basketball team once again introduced Zhang Yu from Liaoning and former South Korean national player Kim Young-ok.

Coupled with the gradual maturity of Zhang Fan, the core of the team, the Beijing women's basketball team finally successfully reached the season's finals and defeated Zhejiang to win the season's championship.

The team is a source of pride for the city of Beijing, and continues to be a competitive force in the WCBA.
