Tampa Bay Strong Dogs Wheelchair Basketball Team

That’s a wrap on our season.

The Strong Dogs battled in our final game against the Skillets. It didn’t go our way, but this group never stopped competing—from the first whistle to the last possession.

We came into Nationals as the 16th seed…
…and left as the 13th team in the country. 📈

That jump doesn’t happen by accident. It’s a testament to the work, the growth, and the heart this team showed all season long.

Through every practice, every game, every challenge—this group stayed together and kept pushing.

To our players, coaches, families, and supporters—thank you for riding with us all year. This is just the beginning.

🐾 Strong Dogs mentality. Always.

Strong Dogs – Day 2 Recap at NWBA National Championships 🏀🔥

Yesterday, the Strong Dogs bounced back in a big way with a strong win over Detroit 💪

After a tough Day 1, the team came out locked in, playing with intensity on both ends of the floor and getting it done when it mattered most.

📊 Final Score: Strong Dogs 58 – Detroit 50

This is the response. This is the fight. This is who we are.

Now we’re right back at it…

Strong Dogs – Day 1 at NWBA National Championships 🏀🔥

Day 1 is in the books for the Strong Dogs, and what a battle it was.

We came in as the 16th seed and opened up against the #1 seed, Kansas City Kings—and proved we belong. In a hard-fought, down-to-the-wire game, we came up just short 49-47, but showed heart, grit, and fight from start to finish.

Game two didn’t get any easier, as we faced the Blazers. The guys battled again but fell 65–55.

This team never backs down. Every possession, every game—we’re competing.

💪 We’re back at it tomorrow at 2pm
📈 Ready to bounce back

Another tournament in the books. Finished 2–3 and gained something even more important — growth.

This group competed every game, stayed together through adversity, and continued to build chemistry on both ends of the floor. We had big plays, clutch moments, and opportunities that are going to make us better moving forward.

Every possession matters. Every rep counts. And this team continues to grow.

Proud of the way our athletes represented the Strong Dogs all weekend — with toughness, heart, and unity.
