Program Details – Spring 2020 RecPlus Program
GLSA truly values the development of the total soccer player and it shows through our player development curriculum, which focuses on teaching a player that having solid technical fundamentals will carry a player through their playing years. All players must be committed to attending training and games, as well as developing skills on their own. As we continue to build the club, GLSA will offer a new program where players who are interested in playing in the Competitive Program can participate without the time, travel and financial commitment, but get a true understanding of the GLSA Competitive culture through training.
