During the October 24th weekend, the Germantown Legends 05 Black NL had two fantastic results in Mid South Conference play.

On Saturday, October 24, the Legends 05 Black NL beat Tennessee United SC 05 Red 2-0 on goals by Joseph Dawson and Hays Adams. TUSC is the current Tennessee state cup champion and the current Mid-South Conference champion.

On Sunday, October 25, the Legends 05 Black NL beat Huntsville United SC 2-1 in a thriller on goals by Dawson Davis and Matthew McDonnell.  Huntsville USC is a three time Alabama State Cup champion and former Mid South Conference champion.  Goalkeeper Justin Cox led a stingy defense that gave up only one goal all weekend.

From its humble beginnings in 1974 with just more than 100,000 registered players to its current registration of more than 3,000,000 players between the ages of five and nineteen, US Youth Soccer has always been recognized as a leader in youth sports organizations.  US Youth Soccer is the largest member of the United States Soccer Federation, the governing body for soccer in the United States, and is comprised of over 600,000 volunteers and administrators, and over 300,000 dedicated coaches, most of whom also are volunteers.

USYS provides a fun, safe and healthy game for all kids. This includes big kids, little kids, tall kids, short kids, young kids, older kids, kids who want to play for one season, kids who want to play for twenty seasons, kids who play strictly for fun and kids who want to compete at the highest level possible. Kids are different, and because they are different, their physical, social and psychological needs are different.  US Youth Soccer recognizes this, and their programs are aimed at meeting the different needs of all kids.
