Skechers and Rising Ballers invited some of the best talent in the country to battle it out in 'The Final Five', a 5-a-side tournament launching the new 'Diamond Ice' boot pack.

Some of the UK's best ballers descended on Powerleague Nine Elms in South London with their eyes on the prize: a 1-year boot deal with Skechers. Former Rising Ballers players made up the Rising Ballers Allstars team, whilst ex-academy players who were recently released by clubs joined forces to form Unsigned FC. Other sides included ImJustBait, Ballers in God, all-influencer team Cre8tors Elite, GRT, Hidden Talent and the King of Fives himself.

Everyone wanted to claim the bragging rights for themselves, but in the end, only one team could take the crown. Rising Ballers Allstars came out on top, beating ImJustBait 2-0 in the final as pros – Anthony Elanga to Bobby Decordova-Reid – watched from the sidelines. 

Off the pitch, HD Cutz made sure every baller looked sharp for the cameras, with host Josh Denzel on mic duties throughout the day. Amongst the guests were Joel Mensah, Top Boy’s Araloyin Oshunremi and PK Humble.

All the players were kitted out in the new 'Diamond Ice' boots, with Rising Ballers Allstars getting first dibs on what’s cooking in the Skechers pipeline this year.

Take a closer look at the new Skechers Diamond Ice pack below, which is available now at skechers.com
