History

The club was established in 1999 and its teams (girls, youth, junior and senior) started participating in local and regional competitions. After a restructure process in 2006, the club adopted a more professional oriented model that allowed the first team to move from regional to national competitions. It reached Serie D (in 2008), Serie C (in 2010), Serie B2 (in 2011) and Serie B1 (in 2013). The club won the 2015–16 Serie B1 promotion playoff and made its debut in the Serie A2 the following season.

In 2018, Millenium Brescia finished the regular season of Serie A2 in first place and the club was promoted to Serie A1 for the 2018–2019 season. Brescia remained in the top league for three seasons, but in 2021 the club was relegated back to Serie A2.

Venue

The club played its home matches at the PalaMillenium (in Bagnolo Mella) until 2017, when ahead of the 2017–18 season it moved to the PalaGeorge (in Montichiari), which has a 4,000 spectators capacity.
