The resolution recognizes Tanner Tessmann, a talented soccer player from Hoover, Alabama, who has been named the 2024 Young Male Player of the Year by the United States Soccer Federation. As a captain of the 2024 U.S. Olympic soccer team and a professional player for Olympique Lyonnais in France, Tessmann has made significant strides in his soccer career, having previously played for FC Dallas and the Italian club Venezia. His impressive performance on the field has led to his integration into the senior squad of the United States Men's National Soccer Team, where he has already made notable contributions.

In honor of Tanner Tessmann's achievements and his representation of Alabama on an international level, the resolution declares June 19, 2026, as Tanner Tessmann Day in Alabama.
