Welcome to the Iowa High School All‑Star Showcase, presented by Top Student Athlete Recruiting in partnership with the Des Moines Menace, Kick It Forward, and the Iowa High School Soccer Coaches Association.
This event brings together Iowa’s top young high school soccer players to celebrate the past season while serving as a college showcase opportunity and helping Iowa high school soccer players with the pursuit of playing collegiately.
