Hill United Chiefs will look to defend their ISC World Championship as the top-ranked team heading into the 2025 ISC World Tournament starting July 26 in North Mankato, MN at Caswell Park.

There were no changes in the top 7 in the rankings. STK from Kamloops, BC edged ahead of Fargo, ND Kegel Black Knights into the #8 spot while Grande Prairie, AB Pirates enter into the rankings at #10.  Sandlot Merchants, from Stevens, PA, were the biggest upward movers of the previously ranked teams, jumping three spots to #11 on the strength of three tournament wins.

The ISC rankings committee is overseen by Greg Nydick, Rich Haldane and Bill Berkenpass. Committee members have been selected from across North America and is comprised of players, coaches, administrators and associates. We hope this diverse selection balances each other out and allows for all teams to have rankers that see them.
