Alpella S.K.

Alpella Spor Kulübü, or Alpella B.K., is a defunct professional basketball club that was based in Turkey. The club was founded as a humble successor to the Turkish Basketball League club Ülkerspor, after the Ülker corporation, which owned and sponsored the club, decided to abolish it, and merge it with Fenerbahçe. Fenerbahçe then became known as Fenerbahçe Ülker.
