Looking forward to our new partnership! TLK teams will get to play some games at a great new facility & have access to some great training at Shoot 360!

🏀 The games are coming to Edwardsville.

We are thrilled to be a host site for the Metro East Youth Basketball League this upcoming season. Watching young athletes compete and grow in our building is exactly the kind of energy we set out to create when we envisioned The Courthouse 618.

And it doesn't stop there. The Courthouse 618 will also be offering tournament opportunities for teams looking to compete at a high level right here in the Metro East.

This is what we built it for. See you on the court! 👊

📍 Edwardsville, IL

Shoutout to 5B TLK Black, led by coaches Jay Blair, Matt Kitzmiller & Kevin Zawodniak on an incredible basketball season!!

This group of boys capped off an amazing year with a 31–5 record, advancing to the championship game in all 8 tournaments they played—earning six 1st‑place finishes and two 2nd‑place finishes.

Their historic run concluded last weekend with a state tournament appearance, finishing 2nd in Illinois after a hard‑fought triple‑overtime battle. Their grit, heart, and refusal to quit were on full display as they left everything on the court and made their school and community proud.

These future Knights showed everyone what true champions look like—and their story is only just beginning!!

Hustle & Heart!!!

4B TLK Black travelled north this weekend to Lincoln IL and brought home 2nd Place 🥈 out of 26 teams in the John Welsh Memorial Tournament. They were the only school feeder team to make the top 8 bracket and took down 2 select teams to advance to the championship! These boys may lack in size and height but make up for it with grit and determination! Congrats on the 4-1 weekend and representing TLK 🏀 with Hustle & Heart ❤️ !!
