History

The Crusaders, then known as the Rizal Ankle Breakers which are due to participate in the Maharlika Pilipinas Basketball League, was officially launched on June 9, 2018. The team shortly announced plans to change its name after fans criticized the name for not being related to the team's locality, the province of Rizal. They changed their name within the month to the "Rizal Crusaders" since according to the ball club's owners, the province is known for "crusades, mountaineering and other stuff".[2]
