TWELVE COURTS OF CHRISTMAS 2025


HIGH SCHOOL SHOOT-OUT
Get ready for the biggest and best high school holiday basketball shootout in the Country – the 5th Anniversary of Twelve Courts of Christmas.
Over 200 high school varsity teams are expected to participate in what is now considered the largest high school holiday shootout in the entire Country! Games tip off on December 12-13 and continue throughout the rest of December, including New Year’s Eve. Some dates will not feature games due to the holidays.
All games will be played at the iconic Hy-Vee Arena and the event is sanctioned by the Missouri State High School Activities Association and the participating state associations. Teams from across Missouri, Kansas, Iowa, Nebraska, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Illinois, Colorado, Kentucky and Florida participated last year. We expect more states to join.
Over 3,000 varsity boys and girls will take to the courts for an event that grows each year with excitement and participation. The event is a huge economic boost to the Kansas City area as well and offers so much holiday experience to the entire family.
For more information and to get your school involved, contact Steve Maxey at 660-359-7244 or smaxey@hyveearena.com.
