GTCSC News
GTSCS is adding some new programs this fall season.

TOP Soccer
TOPSoccer, The Outreach Program for Soccer, is a community-based soccer program for young athletes with physical and mental disabilities that provides a safe and fun environment for their child to participate in organized sports. These athletes compete with athletes of similar abilities. Any youth player between the ages of 4-18 years old having a physical or mental disability that limits their ability to perform at the level of play they have chosen to participate is eligible for the program. Emphasis of this program is on development, training, and providing meaningful participation rather than on competition. TOPSoccer's goal is to enable the thousands of young athletes with disabilities to become valued and successful members of Cal South.

Signature League
District 5 is excited to announce Signature League Soccer for Fall 2010.
Signature League fills the gap between recreation soccer and club soccer. Cal South created the Signature League Program for recreational league based organizations wishing to offer a new playing opportunity of higher level of soccer skill. The SL program is an opportunity for players who would like to progress to club soccer in the near future. SL is much more affordable than club soccer. Ideally the fees are reasonable for all players. SL teams may participate in tournaments. Most club tournaments have SL brackets. Currently GTCSC is offering Signature League Soccer in the U11 and U13 divisions. Players who wish to participate in our Signature League Program will be required to try out. Visit our web site for try out dates and times coming soon.
