Atlanta United's under-14 squad traveled to Gravenzande, Netherlands, to participate in the ninth edition of the Greenport International U14 Tournament from August 23 to August 25. The team emerged victorious against Belgium club KRC Genk in the final through penalty shootouts.

This marks the second consecutive year that Atlanta's under-14 team reached the finals. In 2023, they faced Scottish club Aberdeen, with that match also concluding in a penalty shootout and Aberdeen securing the victory. This year, Atlanta finished the tournament ranked first among 16 teams.

The Greenport International U14 Tournament, previously known as the Boal International Tournament, features 16 clubs from around the world. These clubs are divided into two groups for initial matches. Teams compete until only two remain for the final match. Each club is then ranked based on their performance throughout the competition.
