History Cuneo Granda Volley was founded in 2003 and started playing in Serie C of the Italian league. In 2005 the club was promoted to Serie B2 where it played until 2009. Then a few seasons in the lower division Serie C followed before Cuneo Granda Volley was promoted to Serie B2 again in 2014. In the following season Cuneo Granda Volley finished in second place in the regular season in pool A of Serie B2. While the club was eliminated in the promotion playoffs it was still promoted to Serie B1 due to repechage.
In its first season (2015–2016) of Serie B1 Cuneo Granda Volley finished the regular season in third place in pool A, but failed to reach the promotion spot in the playoffs. The following season (2016–2017) Cuneo Granda Volley again finished the regular season in third place and this time the club won the playoffs and was promoted to Serie A2.
In its debut season (2017–2018) in Serie A2 the club finished in second place in the regular season, but in the promotion playoffs it was eliminated in the semifinals by Chieri '76. However, by acquiring the rights to play in Serie A1 from River Volley the club was still able to advance to the top league the following season. In the 2023–2024 season of Serie A1, Cuneo Granda Volley finished the regular season as the 13th ranked team and was relegated. Determined to stay in the top league, the club chose to acquire the rights to play in Serie A1 from Volleyball Casalmaggiore.
As of 2026, Cuneo Granda Volley's best result in Serie A1 is a seventh place in the regular season (2020–2021 and 2021–2022) and the quarterfinals of the championship playoffs.
