Welcome to The Ladies Ball - home to national girls youth basketball events being produced in partnership with the Women’s Basketball Hall of Fame. From the National Championship to Showcase events, we have opportunities for athlete from 4th grade to 12th grade to compete.
National Championship for 4th-9th Grade Teams
This event features the top youth teams at the national elite level across 4th-9th grades. In September 2025, the best girls basketball teams will compete to represent their region in a nationwide bracket tournament. Winners of each regional bracket receive an invite to compete in the National Championship!
Showcase Events for 5th-12th Grade Athletes
National showcase events are a one-of-kind that feature the latest basketball performance testing, skill testing and competition (1v1, 2v2, 3v3 and 5v5) over two and a half exciting days. The on-court competition and off-court breakouts feature former college and WNBA coaches and will be led by NBA coach Bruce Kreitzer!
Each year, the best in women’s basketball are memorialized at the Women's Basketball Hall of Fame in Knoxville, TN. Now, the top girl's basketball teams in the world will earn the right to be honored and become a part of basketball history.
The mission of the Hall of Fame is to honor the past, celebrate the present, and promote the future of women’s basketball. This championship event serves as the official welcome party for the future stars of women’s basketball.
"We’re excited to partner with The Ladies Ball Tournament and always support the growth of the girls game in the U.S. All athletes deserve a stage and we’re opening our doors and arms to all teams that compete on their journey to Knoxville. Connecting the great history of our game with the future of it is always a priority for our team." -Dana Hart, President WBHOF
