“This talent showcase offers an opportunity for young players across the U.S. to compete against friends and teammates in an environment driven by technology,” said Eddie Lewis, founder of TOCA.
“Each participant has the chance to immerse themselves in game simulations and receive an overall evaluation of their strengths and challenges. We’re delighted to get the best of the best to sample our proprietary technology, while providing these athletes with the chance to win a trip to the 2025 MLS All-Star Week.”
TOCA first linked up with MLS in 2023, and they’ve been building on it ever since. Last year’s showcase sent four finalists to Columbus, Ohio. This year? Even bigger—with three extra weeks of competition to give more players their shot.
“Our ongoing collaboration and partnership with TOCA has allowed us to grow the game of soccer with novel experiences,” said Jen Cramer, MLS Executive Vice President, Partnership Marketing. “With the TOCA Skills Showcase, Major League Soccer highlights its commitment to delivering entertaining soccer activities across local communities, inspiring kids to stay active with the game of soccer at the center.”
