The event which included support from the Florida High School 7v7 Association and Dream Finders Homes, brought the teams together to offer the teams the experience of playing inside an NFL stadium.

As such, top teams from the state to be represented at the tournament included 2021 regional finalist Middleburg, regional semifinalist Jacksonville Andrew Jackson, and perennial playoff contender Green Cove Springs Clay.
