The first practice took place in July 2008. In the first years, only a few girls participated in the training sessions. Since the team did not have a coach, the acquisition and improvement of lacrosse skills was guided by team members themselves. Through constant work and participation in tournaments and the Bundesliga South, not only the lacrosse skills augmented, but also the number of team members. Especially through the cooperation with the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology many new players joined the team. With growing experience and through the help of their new coach, the team improved its position in the league and reached the 4th place in the Bundeslige South in 2012. The team colors are black and pink, which is the reason for the women's team name "Black Storm". Every game starts and ends with the team members performing their team slogan "1,2,3 - Black Storm - Woohoo."
The team spirit is an essential element of Karlsruhe Storm. Monthly social events and other activities are an integral part of the team. Karlsruhe Storm is especially renowned for its lacrosse parties that take place every semester. These parties not only render the opportunity to celebrate with lacrosse team players and other students, but also to make lacrosse in Karlsruhe more popular.
