The 9th Annual Brad Rich Invitational Sponsored by Warrior Foundation Freedom Station
Warrior Foundation Freedom Station is honored to sponsor the 9th Annual Brad Rich Invitational Tournament, taking place February 6-8, 2026. Hosted by San Diego’s own Wolfpack Wheelchair Basketball Team, proudly sponsored by Warrior Foundation Freedom Station. This highly anticipated event will bring together 20 national wheelchair basketball teams for a weekend of elite competition, camaraderie, and inspiration.
The tournament is named in honor of SSgt Brad Rich, (U.S. Marine Ret.) who served in Operation Enduring Freedom in Afghanistan and member of the Wolfpack team. In 2012, Brad was diagnosed with spinal cancer, which later metastasized to his brain. Brad passed away in 2015, leaving behind an enduring legacy of strength, perseverance, and determination.
The Brad Rich Invitational is more than just a game—it embodies the belief that Warriors are not defined by their disabilities but by their spirit! The tournament showcases adaptive sports athletes whose determination and skill inspire all who watch them play.
The Wolfpack Wheelchair Basketball Team, sponsored by Warrior Foundation Freedom Station, provides its players with mental and physical wellness, self-confidence, and a sense of belonging. The team fosters camaraderie, teamwork, and purpose—values that were the foundation of their military service.
Proceeds from the event will directly benefit Warrior Foundation Freedom Station, an organization dedicated to providing transitional housing, career assistance, and critical support programs for Warriors navigating life after military service.
“The Brad Rich Invitational Tournament is a celebration of strength, perseverance, and the incredible impact we can make when we come together for a purpose,” said Andrew Gasper, CEO of Warrior Foundation Freedom Station. “We are grateful to all the participants, sponsors, and supporters who are helping us change lives through competition.”
Warrior Foundation Freedom Station invites the public to attend, support, and be part of this meaningful event. For more information on the Brad Rich Invitational Tournament, sponsorship opportunities, or ways to get involved, please visit www.WarriorFoundation.org/bradrich
