On the weekends of March 11-13 (Girls) & March 18-20 (Boys) 2022, the top teams in the state will again meet in the Spokane Valley to battle it out for the 9th annual Washington Middle School Basketball Championship. After a long regular season playing against other teams in your area, the State Basketball Championship offers teams the shot to compete against fresh faces from all corners of the state.
This is not your ordinary league tournament, but rather the chance of a lifetime for all kids… “Remember the time we went to State!?!”

♦ Players and coaches will play middle school aged teams that they’ve never faced before. We have teams traveling from all over Washington: the Puget Sound area, Olympic Peninsula, Southwestern WA, Tri Cities, Yakima and Bellingham. Of course, there’ll be some hometown teams representing Spokane also!
♦ Partner hotels and resorts offering discounted rates.
♦ Competition will be held at clean, multi-court venues. Friday and Saturday will feature exciting pool play with Sunday bringing the magic of the semi-finals and Championship games.
♦ Certified referees from the Spokane Basketball Officials Association and other associations throughout the state.
♦ Pre-determined scoreboard operators and scorebook keepers. No need for State coaches to pull visiting parent volunteers from the stands. So parents can sit back and relax (if watching your child compete in the Championship is relaxing?!)
