In 1968 KFUM decided to shut down the basketball section due partly to economic problems and a bit too wild parties.

The youths gathered in the KFUM club house to find a way to save the basketball in Södertälje.

They announced Benny Johannson as chairman, Peter Sund as cashier and May Ohlsson as secretary.

KFUM's administration supplied some used equipment including a Hippo - the men's teams mascot.

The dominating players of the team were Ann-Marie Wikner, Britt-Marie Andersson and Kicki Johansson.

The same year, the men's team, Södertälje Kings, loses in the final against Alvik, but the games is watched by 6,414 people (a new record) in Scaniarinken.

Another important part of SBBK's history is when Täljehallen was opened in 1984 and the team got access to three basketball courts and stands.

To appear in this section a player must have either: SBBK can be divided into three parts: elite- and young elites (All-star), Stadsdelsverksamheten (SDV) and Södertälje Basketball League (SBL).

The women's development team is called Kringlan Basket and play in the second division in Stockholm.

On the side of the basketball teams there is a co-operation with Södertälje Municipality which allows students from the seventh grade up to the last year of high-school to practice during schooltime.

Rosenborgsskolan and Igelstavikens Gymnasium are schools where students can combine their studies with basketball.
