The Kent Kings, based at Central Park Stadium (track size 268 metres) in Sittingbourne, were founded on 6th May 2013. Their colours are red and white, and they currently (2019) compete in the National League. In their first season in 2013 the team finished 7th in the National League, and bottom in the National Trophy. |

By 2014 they had improved to finish 3rd in the National League, so gaining a play-off place. Unfortunately they were defeated in their two-leg semi-final against Coventry by 98-88. Once again they finished bottom of the National Trophy.
