U.S. men’s national team star midfielder Tyler Adams and Allstate unveiled a minipitch Tuesday at Sandtown Park in South Fulton.
The minipitch consists of a hard-court surface and is designed for communities that might not have access to a full-size soccer pitch. The minipitch will bring a permanent and accessible space for South Fulton families to “play, build skills and connect through soccer,” Allstate said in a news release.
South Fulton is the third community to receive a minipitch from Allstate and Adams since 2024, and this one comes on the heels of Atlanta hosting eight World Cup matches. The tournament shattered domestic TV rating records, as 62.8 million tuned in to Spain’s 1-0 win over Argentina in the championship match.
Adams was a starter for the U.S. in four of its five World Cup matches as it advanced to the round of 16. He said in the release that competing in the World Cup reminded him “how much soccer has shaped who I am.”
Adams added he is proud to “help create a space where young people in South Fulton can stay active, connected and build confidence.”
