Team Rampage Turns Down P32 to Go Back Independent

Team Rampage turns down P32 League & will go back to being independent for the 2026 season. This move comes after a successful first year on the E32 division of the P32 New Balance circuit. The E32 division is equivalent to the Adidas Gold, Under Armor Rise & NXT Puma circuits. These divisions usually provide an opportunity for teams to work their way up into the top League with a possible sponsorship opportunity. 

This past season Team Rampage 17u went 11-1 on the E32 losing its only game at the buzzer off a 4 point play. Rampage 17u would move up into the P32 for the last tournament where they finished 2-2 through 4 games, finishing 16-5 overall on the circuit. Along with the 17u the 15s & 16s would also qualify for the P32 divisions. However, despite the promotion Rampage didn’t see the P32 League being a great fit after receiving the contract offer last week. 

Rampage has built a strong recommendation on the west coast for independent AAU prior to joining the P32 League. With the future announcements of what’s next for Team Rampage, it is safe to say that the philosophy of developing & showcasing the right talent is still the focus. After traveling & competing across the country last season, Rampage will now look to become one of the biggest independent programs in the country! 

Despite turning down the P32 deal, Rampage will still wear the New Balance gear while being independent, but will be open to providing gear from a variety of companies as well. The program will be outfitted by Bracy Skills Apparel & Beyond Deadstock, & will also have special clothing line drops that will be worn throughout the season. “We are going to change the game with what we do with clothing lines in the future” Director Antonio Hodges stated. Head Coach Brandon Bracy stated “There are no more rules. We will be wearing a lot of different brands including New Balance”. He also added “Expect more matchups with Shoe Deal Teams from every circuit in 2026”. 

Now that Rampage is back to being an independent program, we will see a lot of creativity from them going forward. They will be traveling to the Midwest, the South, & the east coast in 2026 competing against high level independent teams as well as shoe deal teams. “This next move will allow us to be one of the best independent programs in the country & more importantly get recruited by every region in the country” Hodges said.
