Two independent event platforms—The ONE Global Finals and the Prime All Star Finale —have announced a shared-format end-of-season event: THE ONE PRIME Finals.
The event will debut with a new name in spring 2026, THE ONE PRIME Finals consolidates event formats from both groups and offers teams an alternate competition option outside the larger national brands. The event will take place across four U.S. regions, with bids awarded via “37 participating” event producers. However, based on some light research some producers appear in both groups, making the total number of unique producers closer to 26–28.
“The One Prime Finals is the next evolution of our sport’s celebration,” said Ann Lehrmann, Executive Director, The ONE, “This partnership positions us to become bigger, better, and stronger. Together, we can elevate the athlete and program experience and unify under a single, premier end-of-season championship series.”
Facilitated by members of the Prime Alliance and Motus, the decision was made to eliminate duplication and offer a unified end-of-season model for athletes, coaches, and event partners. While framed as a unifying effort, the move effectively folds the previously announced Prime All Star Finale into THE ONE’s existing model. The ONE Global Finals was in its 14th year. The Prime Finale, which was set to launch in May 2026, will no longer operate independently.
“It’s not about one brand,” said Cole Stott, Managing Partner of the Prime All Star Finale. “It’s about working together to create something collaborative for the teams who want a unified experience.”
