The ADIDAS Memphis Invitational Tournament invites the country's best boys and girls U9-U19.  The M.I.T. since 1992 has a tradition as the perfect tournament to prep for USYSA Regionals, summer camps and ODP, or summer domestic and international tournaments.

Quarterfinals and Semifinals will be on Sunday.  Finals will be on Sunday unless the bracket is less than eight teams.

1.      You can lock into the 2010 GIT price.

2.      By applying online by the August 1st Early bird deadline for the GIT you will guarantee your acceptance into the 2011 ADIDAS Germantown Invitational Tournament.

The games for both events are played at the Mike Rose Soccer Complex in Southeast Shelby County in Memphis Tennessee.  The finest complex in the Southeast Regiom, there are 16 FIFA dimension (115 yds X 75 yds), hybrid Sports Bermuda grass, and lighted playing fields. The fields have a drainage system to assure quick dissipation of water during rain periods.  There is also a 2,500 plus seat stadium. The playing surface is state of the art with an underground drainage and sprinkler system. This hybrid Bermuda field is completely flat and measures 116 yards by 72 - 76 yards.  Many finals are played here.
