It's that time of the year again! Basketball season with Special Olympics Missouri! Our St. Louis Metro Area Basketball Tournament is scheduled for Saturday, January 26 in the Warren County R-3 School District and Warrenton communities at the following venues: Daniel Boone Elementary School, Blackhawk Middle School,
Rebecca Boone Elementary School, Warrior Ridge Elementary School, Warrenton High School and Holy Rosary Parish. The games will start at 8:00 a.m., with

Last year, this tournament hosted roughly 90 St. Louis Metro teams and 7 Southeast teams in the following divisions: Regulation, Unified, Modified, 3-on-3, Team Skills and Individual Skills Basketball. We are expecting this year to be just as exciting. Come out and cheer on your talented local athletes.
