The Cincinnati Royals climbed to #6 in the first national rankings of the season. This marks the highest ranking in the 5 seasons the Royals have competed in the National Wheelchair Basketball Association. The top 16 teams in the country will qualify for the national tournament in March.

I hope you will keep us up to date on the wheelerchair basketball paraolympics next year. I never get to see those athletes compete because they don't really show it on tv.

Yes definitely! One of our coaches played and won a gold medal at the Paralympics in 2016 but recently retired from international competition. I’m hoping the TV coverage will increase this time around. If ESPN can show cornhole tournaments, I have to believe there’s an audience for wheelchair basketball.
