The 12th Annual State Championship presented by Vacasa is a school-only tournament featuring qualified squads from throughout Oregon. More than 300 teams are expected back to the high desert this season, where families experience an exciting season-ending getaway.
UNMATCHED GEOGRAPHIC DIVERSITY
After a long season of seeing the same teams, our coaches and players love the fresh competition featured at the Oregon Middle School Basketball Championship. No other event in the state offers such a wide geographic range of school-based teams. The 2022 State tournament featured players from 189 zip codes and 117 towns across Oregon. Check out the map above with all of the hometowns represented at State!

Eligibility
All team rosters are verified by the State Eligibility Committee prior to tournament play. Last season, we reviewed 17,250 Proof of Eligibility documents!
GRANDFATHER EXCEPTION: Any player who participated in a prior State tournament is automatically approved for 2023 play and does not need to re-submit Proof of Eligibility (POE) documents. However, ALL players, returning or not, are required to have a new Parent/Guardian Waiver submitted for 2023.
