Greetings,

All tournament games in the 2025 Indiana Middle School Basketball Championship will be played in Bloomington on the weekend of March 14-16. To the best of our knowledge, this event will become the first youth tournament ever played in the historic 10-court Bill Garrett Fieldhouse on campus*. Many thanks to the IU administration for making this happen!

* * NCAA rules prohibit 7th and 8th grade boys from competing on a D-1 campus. As a result, those divisons will play at the 5-court Twin Lakes Rec Center – just two miles from campus.
