History

The club was originally established on September 8, 1935, as BC Spartak Leningrad. The club then became known as BC Spartak Saint Petersburg in 1991.

The club was disbanded on July 31, 2014, due to financial problems. However, it was later reestablished for the 2016–17 season, under the name of BC Kondrashin Belov, in honor of Alexander Belov and Vladimir Kondrashin.

In February 2017, the club once again took the name of BC Spartak Saint Petersburg, and signed a sponsorship contract with VTB, one of the largest state-owned banks in Russia. In 2020 the team disbanded again.

The Club’s President, Andrei Sergeyevich Fetisov, was involved later in forming other club named BC Spartak Leningrad Oblast.
