MIDDLETON SPEEDWAY BLUEBIRDS BASKETBALL

After approximately 80 years in existence, the Middleton Bluebirds Speedway Basketball Program has decided to no longer offer teams and skills camps.

We would like to start by taking a moment to remember our founder, Merlin Voss, who passed away in 2013. Merlin started the program in the 1940s. His dedication to the youth of this area has been well-documented. Thousands of people benefited from his basketball program.

While we haven't had any teams since 2020 and stopped offering skills camps in 2018, we did continue to run our popular Bluebirds Winter Classic. The 2024 tournament included 37 teams across nine age divisions. Another program may continue to run the event. Details to come. 

Our philosophy was that tournament play provided a better opportunity for players to experience consistently good competition while also allowing for a flexible schedule that was attractive to players and families.

The program director from 2007 to 2024 was Perry Hibner. You can call Mr. Hibner at
608-828-9891 (home) or 608-698-0314 (cell) or e-mail him at perryhibner@gmail.com.
