Levels of Play 

Scout Program: Competition and Training 

The Iowa Sticks Scout program will consist of the top players in their respective age groups.   

Players in this program have shown abilities currently and, in the past, to play at the collegiate level. Players invited for this team have been referred by Sticks staff, additional trusted sources and/or have gone through try-outs and performed exceptionally.  

Scout teams will be regional and/or national in nature and experiences may vary depending on the skills/positions of the player and the level of tournament. Potentially, multiple teams from an age group may be formed to provide the best possible fit for players. As a rule, team formation will depend highly on how many players opt-ins for a particular tournament.  

Being selected for the scout program does not mean you will be selected to attend all events.    

Red Program:  Competition and Training 

The Iowa Sticks Red Program will consist of skilled, experienced players focused on development and preparing for exposure opportunities.  

Players in the Red Program have shown the ability to compete at the HS level and develop into college level players.
