The annual Georgia vs. Tennessee high school soccer all-star games are set for CHI Memorial Stadium in East Ridge, Tennessee this Sunday, June 20. The event will feature two matches, one between the girls all-stars of Tennessee and Georgia and the second being between the boys. The tradition of the Tennessee Georgia All Star match was started by Stump Martin over 15 years ago.
The teams will all be composed of the 20 best players from Tennessee vs. the 20 best players from Georgia. The players in each team are nominated and selected by the high school coaches in the TSSAA and GHSA based on their performances in High School soccer this past season. The rosters for both states will look familiar to those acquainted with the Chattanooga and Dalton Red Wolves Academies with 20 of the 40 Boys All Stars coming from the academy.
A new element introduced to this year’s matches will be the Ultimate XI, which will entail an expert committee selecting both a boys and girls top 11 from the matches. The Ultimate XI will then be recognized at the Chattanooga Red Wolves match vs North Carolina FC later that night.
The All Star girls play first at 2pm Eastern, followed by the boys who kick off at 4pm. Each ticket for the All Star games will also grant you admission to the professional match at 7pm later that night between the Chattanooga Red Wolves first team and North Carolina FC.
