2025 Prep Dig Gauntlet Expanding To Three Divisions
Due to popular demand, the Prep Dig Gauntlet is expanding in 2025!
The Prep Dig Gauntlet is the longest-running Prep Dig Tournament originating in 2019. For the past three years, the Gauntlet has been an invite-only tournament that has featured some of the top clubs in the country from multiple states with 1st Alliance, Adversity, Circle City, FC Elite , Northern Lights, Rockwood Thunder, Sky High, Sports Performance, and our host Milwaukee Sting .
For 2025, Prep Dig will have an expanded format that will feature three divisions of Open, Premier, and Club using three eight-court facilities in Milwaukee for ages 14-17s!
Breakdown of Divisions
- Open - Teams who compete in Open at AAU Nationals, or have earned a bid to USAV Nationals at the Open or National Division will have FIRST priority in this division. Teams who compete in the Elite or Premier Division at AAUs or USA and Liberty at USAV will be next in line. Teams who have previously competed in our Prep Dig Gauntlet would be at the Open level.
- Premier - This is a great opportunity for teams who would be heading to the Club division at AAU Nationals or the American, Freedom, and Patriot Division of USAV Nationals.
- Club - Teams who are heading to AAU Nationals in the Aspire, Spirit, or Classic Division. This might even be a great opportunity for regional teams to finish their season who are not heading to a national tournament as well.
There will be 16 teams in each division in age groups 14s through 17s.
Tournament Details
- AM Wave - 16s and 17s
- PM Wave - 14s and 15s
All Gold Bracket play for each division will be played in the AM Wave on Sunday.
