Bacoor City Strikers seasons

The Strikers finished the season ranked fifth in the South Division under extraordinary circumstances. Due to a scoring error, their game against the Parañaque Patriots had to be replayed, which was originally a loss for Bacoor City. Parañaque didn't show up in the replay, giving Bacoor City the win. Should the original result remain, Bacoor City would place sixth instead.

Nevertheless, Bacoor City advanced to the playoffs and faced against the GenSan Warriors in the Division Quarterfinals, which the Strikers beat in two games. They would unfortunately be swept by the Davao Occidental Tigers in the Division Semifinals.

The team played all of their home games this season at the Strike Gymnasium.
