BIRMINGHAM, Ala. April 22, 2024 – Before the Birmingham Legion FC takes on the Memphis 901 FC, they will reveal a special custom kit that pays homage to the city of Birmingham. Fans are invited to attend the reveal atop Red Mountain at Vulcan Park & Museum on Thursday, April 25 at 2 PM. Join the Legion team, staff, and sponsors as selected players will model the new kit. Hear from President and General Manager Jay Heaps and Legion FC Head Coach Tom Soehn. We will end the reveal with a Coca-Cola toast to commemorate the new kit and new season. Fans wanting to attend should RSVP at khernandez@bhmlegion.com.
“We’re thrilled to unveil our new black kit that is Birmingham-inspired and represents the hard-working spirit of our city. Legion FC players will wear the kit for the first time this Saturday at Protective Stadium against our Memphis rivals,” said Heaps.
Make plans to cheer on Legion FC on Saturday, April 27 at 6:30 P.M. at Protective Stadium as they take on Memphis FC. In the 15 meetings between the two teams, Legion has won seven matches; Memphis has won three matches; and five matches have ended in a draw (7-3-5). It’s Black Out night so we are asking fans to wear your black Legion gear. A limited number of the new jerseys will also be available for pre-order at the reveal event and for purchase at the game.
