COMPETITIVE SOCCER
SF Glens competitive soccer program is for girls and boys, U8 and older (birth year 2014 - 2003), who want to work hard, develop their skills and soccer experience, and compete against the best players in the most competitive playing leagues and competitions.
We offer a complete player development path for all levels of competitive players and teams. And due to our access to non-city fields and facilities, we can provide players a chance to compete in the top leagues and top state competitions earlier than any other program here in San Francisco. Our competitive program features top coaches (more licensed coaches than any club in San Francisco), a committed technical staff, and access to added training, events, and soccer experiences (some of our top players and teams travel abroad to experience professional academies). Everything is geared toward player development based upon a club model (multiple teams per age group), as well as a proven curriculum of technical skills accompanied by a carefully planned and age-appropriate introduction to tactics. With competitive soccer at SF Glens Soccer Club, the commitment level from the players and families is more demanding. Our competitive teams train, at a minimum, two times per week with the top teams often securing additional private training time and clinics. Additionally, competitive teams typically participate in both the level-appropriate tournaments we host as well as two to four other high profile tournaments annually, some of which may require teams to travel for overnight stays or possibly out of state for games. PLAYING TIME POLICYPlaying time requirements varies at each program. Below is the guideline for each program.
SF Competitive program : 40% Minimum Travel Competitive (non Academy NorCal) : 40% Minimum* Travel Competitive (Academy NorCal/NPL): 25% Minimum* * Playing time can be affected by practice attendance GUEST PLAYER POLICYSF Competitive program : Our guest player policy is to allow players extra opportunity to guest play for other SF Competitive team based on the guideline set by SF Youth Soccer. Usually SF Youth Soccer set a limit of 2 guest players for a team to have and guest players are only allowed to guest play for teams in the SF Comp Upperhouse league.
Travel Competitive (non-Academy and Academy program): Travel competitive teams (non-Academy teams and Academy teams) competing in the NorCal premier league are free to guest on other NorCal travel teams within the club. Our guest player policy is to allow players extra opportunities to get game experience following a "club model". Players who are excelling at their current level will have the opportunity to play at a higher level or age group to offer an expansive development program. SAN FRANCISCO RESIDENCY REQUIREMENTSF Glens' programs are designed for SF residents with limited exceptions. Teams U14 and under (birth year 2007 and younger) are allowed to have two non SF residents on the team. Teams U15 and up (birth year 2006 and older) are allowed to have three non SF residents on the team in order to meet the residency requirement to receive SFRPD fields for practice and games.
