The new professional soccer team that’s coming to Chattanooga has opened voting for the final selection of potential names for the new squad. Chattanooga Pro Soccer received more than 350 submissions, which included stories tied to the region’s history, industry, native species and animals as well as its landmarks, music, art, values and spirit, according to a news release. Members of the public can now vote for their favorite out of the following options:

  • Chattanooga Express
  • Chattanooga Generals
  • Chattanooga Ironhorses
  • Chattanooga Red Wolves
  • Sporting Chattanooga

Following a review of hundreds of submissions, the professional soccer organization decided to increase final voting to five options for the team name, according to a news release. Voting will continue through the end of Sept. 5. The professional soccer team name will be announced on Sept. 6. A public brand unveiling and community celebration will take place later this fall. To vote, visit the team’s website.
