About Us

2022-23 marks Iowa Prep’s tenth season on the club basketball scene.

Known primarily for our ability to develop players of all ability levels, 75% of Iowa Prep Alumni have moved on to play college athletics.

Whether 9U or 17U, you’ll learn the value of being PROCESS DRIVEN in your quest to become the best athlete and citizen you can possibly be.
