SAT., APRIL 23: USF CAMPUS TOUR & SPRING FRIENDLY MATCH (USF vs. SF GLENS) - RSVP FREE HERE

GLENS2COLLEGE PROGRAM

---

Our SF Glens Academy's mission is about more than just developing your soccer skills on the field, but also helping prepare you for life outside it as well. 

Glens2College is a unique program that centers on getting our players exposure to the idea of higher education while also arming them with resources to help them get there.

Every year, we go on multiple College Tours in the Bay Area to give our players an idea of what it's like to be on a university campus. We then end the day with a college soccer game as there usually will be at least one Glens alum from our Academy or our USL2 First Team playing on one of the teams; after the match, they come over to our players and have a postgame chat where they answer kids' questions about the college experience.

We also provide annual support for our high school upperclassmen with their College Applications, namely their Personal Statements, which are an absolutely essential part of the process. In this increasingly competitive academic environment, top grades are not enough, as an excellent Personal Statement can be the difference in getting accepted to your dream school.

Finally, we are the only SF club that runs an annual College ID Camp locally. As most parents find out, sending your child to a College ID Camp to be seen and scouted by college coaches usually requires an expensive trip out of the Bay Area with flight and hotel. We decided to bring the college coaches to you by doing it ourselves. Our last two College ID Camps at Skyline College had about 20 D-1, D-2, D-3, and JC coaches from across the country, and many of our players have come away with scholarship offers as a result of the camp.

The results are clear as day. Since 2019, 22 SF Glens Academy alumni have gone on to play at the college level. This year (2022) alone, four Glens have either committed or signed with a Division I college program and five in total will be playing at the next level with more to come.
