Media Day Community Visits and Experience with Red Bank High School and Humane Educational Society

Our 2024 Media Day allowed us to capture some great memories with our athletes and members of our community. Partnering with the community also means supporting the next generation of sports professionals, so we were delighted to invite Red Bank High School’s Sports Management Class to join our Media Day and gain hands-on experience to take back to their school’s sports programs. Keeper Jonathan Burke and CFC staff spoke with the high school students about breaking into the sports industry while providing life-changing experiences for a brighter future.

We were also delighted to have the Humane Educational Society pups jump in our pictures with our players for Media Day! Our athletes spent some time with the pups that are up for adoption at your local Chattanooga Humane Educational Society! Be on the lookout for the HES and Chattanooga FC calendar for sale, with a portion of the proceeds going toward the Humane Educational Society of Chattanooga.
