We’re excited to announce the birth of a new basketball team that’s set to make waves
in the National Basketball League (NBL) – the Cleveland Steelers! Based in the beating heart of Teesside, the Steelers are proud to champion local talent, bringing together the best players from the area to create a team that embodies the spirit, grit, and passion of Teesside.
With eyes set firmly on the NBL for the 2025/26 season, the Cleveland Steelers aim to not only compete but to stand as a symbol of pride for the Cleveland community.
Our mission is simple: build a team that is both competitive and reflective of the area’s immense basketball potential.
We’re dedicated to showcasing the raw talent that the region has to offer, fostering homegrown players, and providing opportunities for young athletes to thrive.
As we prepare for our debut in the league, we invite fans, families, and communities from across Teesside to join us on this exciting journey.
The Cleveland Steelers are more than just a team – we’re a movement that’s ready to make its mark in British basketball.
