The team, originally known as the Shopinas.com Clickers took over the original Barako Bull Energy Boosters franchise after it was sold to the Lina Group of Companies (which also owns the Air21 Express, renamed as Barako Bull starting this season) on July 2011. The team was renamed as Air21 Express before the start of the Commissioner's Cup.
