Come on Growlbacks, we're not dead!

The Fighting Growlbacks are the athletics teams at the Teen Girl Squad's school. The "Growlback" is an indeterminate beast with shaggy fur and sharp teeth, somewhat similar to a lion; a rather mangy-looking costumed mascot at sport games is portrayed by Regular Greg. The Growlbacks symbol is a stylized G with fangs, fur, and eyes that evoke the namesake creature. The athletic program has one known coach who seems to be a pushover, as well as a "Spirit Pit".

Every football player except one.
There's no "I" in Growlbacks.

Football

The Fighting Growlbacks football team is pretty poor at their sport; one of their cheers includes "At least try to beat the spread". Quarterman serves as the quarterback, with several other indistinguishable characters filling in the other positions. It seems that when these football players are out of uniform, they take the shape of actual footballs.

Basketball

There is also a Fighting Growlbacks basketball team. While not much is known about their players, at least Basketballa is part of the team.
