Evo's 2025 Winter Series

This will be our 9th Winter Series season, but it’s our FIRST time hosting in Illinois!

Our Fall Feeder Fest and Winter Feeder Fest tournaments is where it all began for us in Wisconsin, back in January of 2017.  These feeder only tournaments have grown to the largest feeder only events in the state.  This season we’re excited to announce that we are adding a third location in Illinois while still hosting two locations in Wisconsin for our Feeder Fests!!  The Fall Feeder Fest will be hosted on 14 courts in New Berlin, WI, Mequon, WI and Homer Glen, IL.  Our Winter Feeder Fest will be held on 21 courts in Pleasant Prairie, Kenosha and Rockford!  We’re also hosting our Chi-Town Throwdown at two college campuses, the College of Lake County (Grayslake, IL) and Harper College (Palatine, IL) on 7 beautiful hardwood courts.

Lastly we are beyond excited to host our Evo Winter Nationals at the Wisconsin Dells, with 10 hardwood courts!  What better way to end the Winter Season at the Dells and competing against teams from MN, IA, IL, IN & WI!!
