Age Determining Date

Current grade for 2018-2019 (September 15, 2018 age determining date) school year will be used to determine the grade for participation.  Athletes should check with their school’s athletic director concerning participation. Iowa Games cannot be held accountable for determining an athlete’s eligibility.

A $25/team discount is available for basketball organizations (clubs, leagues, schools) that enter 4 or more teams. Email megan.hansen@iowagames.org for more information.

Awards

1st and 2nd place teams in the each gender/age division will receive trophies for each player.

7th Grade | Recreation*
7th Grade | Competitive*

7th & 8th Grade will offer a recreation and competitive division.  The intent is to give teams the opportunity to compete against teams of similar skill levels across the state:

Recreation Division (7th & 8th Grade): This division is for park & rec teams, YW/YMCA teams, etc., not for the all-star or select teams.

Competitive Division (7th & 8th Grade):  This division is for the all-star, select or elite teams.

*Iowa Games staff reserves the right to combine divisions (competitive & recreation) if there are not enough teams in each level.

If your division is full, please email megan.hansen@iowagames.org to be put on a waitlist. If we have enough interest, we may be able to open up some divisions.

Schedules & Results will be available through the Iowa Games app on your smartphone by Friday, November 9 at 5:00 PM
