History

On 14 September 2017, the establishment of the club Dutch Windmills was announced along with the intention to enter the Dutch Basketball League for the 2017–18 season. On 3 May 2018, the DBL officially announced the team's participation in the upcoming season. On 6 July, Geert Hammink was appointed as head coach. Windmills played its debut game in the DBL on 7 October 2018, and lost 64–78 to Landstede Zwolle.

Despite reaching the semi-finals of the NBB Cup and being in the fifth place in the DBL, Windmills struggled with financial problems throughout the season. In December 2018, Windmills was refused entrance to its home arena due to its payment arrears. On 10 April 2019, it was announced that Windmills would withdraw from the DBL. Its results in the second half of the competition were scrapped by the DBL.
