The Following Company Supports Glen-Ed Soccer
Coaches and Managers,
With the health of our families, the community and our club as our main concern and in conjunction with our partners, Glen-Ed Sports will temporarily suspend all sports activities at all facilities through Sunday March 22. Based upon public health authorities and the CDC, we are confident this action of social distancing will reduce the spread of this highly contagious disease and allow all of us to enjoy the beautiful game sooner rather than later.
In the near future, we will announce additional details regarding the impact of coronavirus on club activities during the upcoming months.
If you have not read the SLYSA announcement on COVID-19, here is the link.

If you have questions, please contact your coach, manager, Chuck, John, Rob or me.
Best Wishes,
Mark Rimkus
President
Glen-Ed Sports Association
