In partnership with the EGHM Education Foundation and the Glen-Ed Soccer Charitable 501.c.3 Organization, the Glen-Ed Soccer Association cordially invites you to attend the 9th annual Glen-Ed Spring Kick-Off Tournament. The dates are April 6th-7th (local teams have the option to play on April 4-5) in Edwardsville, IL. Through our federally approved 501(c)(3) charitable organization, all tournament proceeds benefit local education and sports programs.
The Spring Kick-off is held on a traditionally off or very light league weekend for most of the 1,000+ St. Louis-based club teams. We will have Gold, Silver and Bronze divisions in all age groups where team entries warrant their creation. Our tournament has enjoyed a strong following from local teams which in turn, has attracted many out-of-town teams seeking diverse competition. During the past 5 years, teams have traveled from 7 different states to play in the Spring Kick-off. We go to great lengths to ensure teams get to compete against other teams of similar ability.
Do you coach more than one team?… because all of our fields are in close proximity, accommodating coaches that have 2 teams entered is something we can do much better than most multi-site events.
The tournament is a 3-game guaranteed event and is open to boys and girls U7-U15 and high school boys only U16-U19. All USYSA, US Club and AYSO-affiliated teams are welcome. To register your team today, please click on this link GotSoccer Team Application.
The playing formats are:
