| Description: | The Glen Shields Soccer Club Inc. has been an active participant in the Thornhill and Concord communities within the City of Vaughan since 1982. Beginning with only sixty-five players and five co-ed house league teams, the Club has grown immensely over the years, and in 2001 the Club reached a new high in registration numbers with 1550 enrolled members. The Club houses 23 representative teams, ranging from the ages of 8 to 21, with approximately 350 youth members playing competitive soccer year round. In 1998, the Club added a professional men's team to its ranks, thereby becoming the first youth Club within Canada to own and operate a professional team in the sport of soccer. The Glen Shields organization is the home of two Ontario Cup championships, three prestigious Robbie championships, numerous other league distinctions and tournament championships, and a full girls program. |
