History
Founded as Cèdres, the team later changed their name to Condor.[2]
The best achievement in the history of Condor was the second place in the 2010 FIBA Africa Clubs Champions Cup. With a impressive campaign, the team beat Kano Pillars in the quarterfinals and AS Salé in the semi-finals. However, in the finals Angolan powerhouse Primeiro de Agosto was too strong for the Cameroonian club.
In 2019, Condor won its second national title.[6]
