The 2022 Rising Stars Tournament for the 14 and under and 10 and under divisions will be held on June 3rd and 4th.

The entry fee for 2022 will be $250 entry plus gate admission for fans. The entry form can be found on the top menu under Rising Stars tab.

The Rising Stars Tournament was organized in 1980 and has been held annually since that time.  It is directed by and for the benefit of the Independent League.  Many former Independent League managers and players volunteer their services to make this the most popular and successful tournament in the tri-state area.

The tournament has consistently drawn teams from Illinois, Wisconsin and  central and eastern Iowa. Many nearby towns have provided top teams, notably Oelwein, Dyersville and Cascade have provided the tournament with top level teams to compete with any and all teams from throughout the Midwest.

The Independent League wishes to extend their thanks and appreciation to Dubuqueland area businesses for their sponsorship of this annual tournament.
