06/25/2009 - San Francisco, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Women's Professional Soccer announced Thursday that The Anheuser-Busch Soccer Park in Fenton, Mo., will be the site of the 2009 WPS All-Star Game on Aug. 30.
The league will employ a unique format for this inaugural WPS All-Star Game by selecting one WPS All-Star team of 18 players, who will play an international club team to be announced soon.
"St. Louis has such a rich soccer tradition and great fans that we thought it would make for a terrific location - right in the heart of America - for our first WPS All-Star Game," WPS Commissioner Tonya Antonucci said.
The WPS team will be selected by late July, with 11 players being voted in by fans, media, players and coaches, and seven being selected by Antonucci and the All-Star coach. The All-Star coach will be voted on by the players.
The Anheuser-Busch Soccer Park is currently the home field of Saint Louis Athletica and has a rich soccer tradition dating back almost three decades.
"It's an honor to host the first-ever WPS All-Star Game," Jeff Cooper, owner of Saint Louis Athletica, said.
