Who Is Evolution Basketball

We’ve emerged as a premier mid-west tournament provider that’s built for Coaches, by Coaches. Our focus is providing the experience that coaches, players, fans and officials deserve so players can develop and compete.  We started in 2017 with just two feeder tournaments using two court facilities in Wisconsin, in 2025 we have grown to 16 events while using up to 21 courts for one event throughout Illinois & Wisconsin.  We’ve had the pleasure of hosting nationally ranked players and teams from CO, IA, IL, IN, MI, MN, MO, OH & WI!

Our Winter Series runs from November to February each year, offering tournaments that focus on school, feeder and travel based teams from 3rd to 8th grades, for both boys and girls teams.  Our Travel Circuits run from April to July each year, offering 6 sessions within our Evo Kings Circuit, which is for boys 9u-17u ages and offering 4 sessions within our Evo Queens Circuit, which is for girls 9u-17u ages.
