Rostock Seawolves is a professional basketball club based in Rostock, Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Germany. The club currently competes in the Basketball Bundesliga.

The Seawolves play their home games in the Rostocker Stadthalle.^[1]

Within the New states of Germany, the Rostock Seawolves have more active members than any other basketball club. (3rd most within Germany overall, as of December 2021)

History

The EBC was founded in 1994 by members of the Sportgemeinschaft (SG) Fischkombinat (FiKo) Rostock and the HSG Uni Rostock. For the first time, the team was promoted to the 1st regional league in 2007. Despite a successful start to the season, however, direct relegation could not be avoided. Under coach Dirk Stenke, the Mecklenburg team managed to stay in Germany's highest amateur league for the first time in 2012, finishing fifth. In the summer of 2012, the name EBC Rostock Seawolves was conceived, under which the team played from then on. That same year, Rostock native Sebastian Wild, who had previously spent six years as head coach of the women's team at Lees-McRae College in the U.S. state of North Carolina, took over as coach and led the team around mainstays Sven Hellmann, Kwame Morgan and Jens Hakanowitz to third place in the standings behind Stade and Magdeburg. In 2013, the club's goal was to make the leap to the Basketball Bundesliga in the long term.

The goal for the 2013/14 season was to confirm the third place from the previous year. In the end, the team finished first in the table and was promoted to the 2nd Bundesliga ProB Nord. Among the mainstays of the championship team were, in particular, the US American Keith Radcliff, the Bulgarian Ivo Slavchev, the Frenchman Mahmoud Diakite and Sven Hellmann. One of the highlights of the season was the head-to-head race with promotion rival Itzehoe Eagles. This resulted in a rivalry that developed into a kind of derby due to the regional proximity.

In May 2018, the Seawolves signed Milan Škobalj as their new head coach,^[2] who later left the team. In 2020, Dirk Bauermann became head coach.
