The Criss Cross King Crunchers were formed in 2024 as the third team and first men's team owned by Republic Biscuit Corporation.[1] The first two teams, namely Creamline Cool Smashers and Choco Mucho Flying Titans, are also owned by the company and both play in the Premier Volleyball League.[2][3]
During the sponsorship event by the Insurance company Allianz in February 2024, the Rebisco team managers already hinted the new team owned by the company.[4][5] The team would be launched in March 1, 2024.[6] Anusorn Bundit will be coaching their debut on the Spikers' Turf.[7]
