TUSC has partnered with several local area facilities to provide Winter indoor training opportunities to the players who have been asking us for year round soccer programs.

Goodlettsville Parks Department will be administering and running an indoor Futsal league in their fantastic recently redeveloped Delmas Community Center. A player centered approach to the program will see players assigned to a team in the U-10, U-12 and U-14 boys or girls age groups in order to produce competative games on a weekly basis over the winter period. Futsal is a skill based version of soccer and the program has been designed not only to increase the technical skill level of players but to encourage experimentation on the ball, leadership, quick decision making, and an improved first touch. The coaching staff highly recommend participation by as many of our young players as possible.

The club has worked hard to secure additional indoor training space for use over the Winter period. Team managers will be offered the opportunity to reserve space on a first come first served basis at weekends beginning in January 2012. Please contact your team manager and/or DOC Andy Poklad for more details including facility fees, locations and hours of operation.

TUSC is coming to the end of the first season of the U-8 academy at our club. In conjunction with our recreational affiliates, Hendersonville soccer club and Middle TN Futbol Club, TUSC coaches have begun to develop a program to ensure players have a grasp of the fundemental skills and techniques to succeed and have fun, whether that be at the select or recreational level.

The concepts of "one player, one ball", developing a love for the sport and a "games oriented" approach to guided discovery are the core values behind the program which has incorporated over 50 players, both boys and girls in the Friday night sessions. Our players have also had the opportunity twice this year to compete against other clubs U-8 programs, to get a taste for future competition, a basic understanding of small group tactics and an opportunity to test themselves in a more challanging environment. The program continues to evolve and we encourage players born between August 1 2003 and July 31st 2004 to participate or contact us to get further information about the program.

Congratulations to the the three boys teams that have qualified via the state league for the Division 1 State Championship Tournament to be held in Murfreesboro on November 12-14.

The 98 Boys Red team under the guidance of coach Gavin Mckinney came through a difficult bracket winning 4 of their 6 games to reach the finals.

A thrilling 2-2 tie in their final game assured Bryan Johnson's 97 Boys Red team qualified for the finals for the second season running.

The 95 Boys Red, led by Coach Chris Kavanagh earned a win away at Brentwood in a winner-takes-all affair.

Congratulations to all the teams on their success.

TUSC 96 Girls Red player Kalie Carter became the first girl at the club to make the ODP region 3 team in our history. She is the second player in as many years to achieve that mark and our congratulations go out to her for her achievements. Kalie has captained the 96 team at TUSC and represented the ODP TN team admirably. She recently travelled to England with the TN 96 team where they trained at Chelsea Academy. Currently rehabing a knee injury, she has taken on a mentoring role as an assistant coach with our 99 girls red team coached by Daniel Fox. All of us at the club can't wait to see her back on the field soon representing TUSC, the state team, and the regional team.
