⚠ PARENTS – For ALL ID/tryout sessions, please be advised that only players and Glen-Ed coaches/staff will be allowed inside the fenced area on the artificial turf. Parents/Guardians should observe from the sidewalk area outside the fenced area near the parking lot.
A couple of important reminders:
- Be aware of the Glen-Ed Weather Policy
- Everyone (including current players) must register first before they attend an ID/Tryout session. Use the "Registration Form" link. Registration is free but you will have to set up an individual user (player) account in Otto Sports for each of your children if your child does not already have one. Otto Sports is different than GotSport.
- Current Glen-Ed players should wear their training shirts to ID/Tryout sessions.
- Players must try out in their birth year age group. Age groups are birth years 2007 through 2021.
- Players SHOULD attend all of the ID and tryout sessions for their age group, IF POSSIBLE. This allows the selection committee to make more informed determination of a player’s abilities.
- Please arrive 10 minutes early before your scheduled tryout time to check in.
- Players and/or a parent MUST go to the check in table to receive a numbered pinnie/vest.
- Every player MUST bring their own ball, wear shin guards, and bring their own water bottle to drink.
About Glen-Ed Soccer:
The Mission
The Glen-Ed Sports Association was created to assist players to ‘Pursue the Dream’ by offering quality select/club sports participation in soccer, basketball and lacrosse while being close to home. The Glen-Ed Sports Association focuses on individual and team development through the improvement of skill, knowledge, teamwork and self-esteem.
The goal is to build leadership, character, integrity and a lifelong passion for sports through a fun, challenging and safe environment.
The club is a Federally Tax Exempt 501(c)(3) Charitable Organization committed to helping players in the St. Louis and Metro East area. Our Tax identification # is 45-1771660.
The Club has 3 divisions. U7-U10 Boys and Girls fall into the Youth Development Division. U11-U14 fall into the Junior Division and U15-U19 teams fall into the Senior Division.
In Junior and Senior Divisions, there is a first team (Premier/United), a second team (Elite) and a third team (Select) in each age group when numbers allow. Whichever the case, players have made a decision to play competitive soccer and are placed based on their passion and ability.
If you have questions, please email John VanBuskirk, Managing Director of Players and Coaches, at DOC@glenedsoccer.com
