GRAND RAPIDS, Mich -- Longtime rivals Noel Dean and Peter Stuursma are coming together to improve the Addix Football All-Star game.

Dean, a co-creator of the game, is moving the game to Hope College where Stuursma is the head coach in an effort to draw players from a larger region.

Dean and Stuursma spent many Friday nights on opposite sidelines when Stuursma was the head coach at East Grand Rapids.

The All-Star game has raised $40,000 in its 1st 2 years. The 2018 game will take place on Friday June 8th.
