Over the years, it has evolved into a celebrated event, showcasing some of the best talent in the region.

This year’s soccer event is organized in collaboration with Chattanooga FC, with hopes of establishing it as a yearly tradition at Finley Stadium. The all-star teams will consist of 20 top players nominated by high school coaches from the Tennessee Secondary School Athletic Association (TSSAA) and the Georgia High School Association (GHSA) based on their performance in the prior season. This selection process underscores the competitive nature of the event and ensures that only the best athletes are given the opportunity to represent their states.

Additionally, it offers a platform for athletes to showcase their skills in front of coaches and scouts who may influence their future prospects in collegiate sports.

The annual match has also gained recognition beyond just soccer.
