Basketball tournaments in Iowa
8 upcoming tournaments in Iowa (13 tracked in total) — youth, middle school, high school, and club/AAU divisions, with direct signup links. Free to browse and free to list your own.
This page tracks 13 basketball tournaments in Iowa across Des Moines, Ames, Council Bluffs, and 4 other cities, running from January through December. 8 are still ahead — the other 5 have already taken place and stay listed so you can see who runs tournaments here year to year.
Pricing is patchy here — only 4 of the 13 listings publish one, ranging $160–$550 USD. That's too small a sample to call a typical Iowa price, so treat it as a floor and a ceiling rather than an average. Each listing links to the organizer's own registration page, which is where current pricing actually lives.
Iowa tournaments here skew toward youth and middle school divisions. Most organizers split further by grade or birth year, and several run boys' and girls' brackets on the same weekend — check each listing for the exact divisions before entering a team.
Every listing links straight to the organizer's own registration page. SixSevenBall doesn't run, verify, or take payment for any of them — if you coach, the guide to running your own covers what it takes to put one on.
About once a week, and only when something new is actually added. Free, and one click to stop.
