Club Set-Up Season 2008-2009
Next season 2008-2009 the club will be known as "Clyde Soccer Glasgow" and will be split into five sections
-
Childrens Section
-
Youth Section
-
Girls Section
-
Ladies Section
-
Community Section
As you can see from the above "Clyde Soccer Glasgow" will control all sections of the club and the Management Committee of the club will not change. Each section will have a line manager reporting to the head coach.
We are restructuring the club as now we run 15 teams which are both boys and girls/ladies teams and have over 200 children a week attending a Community Course.
We have now made links with Glasgow City Councils "Culture & Sport" football development department and our players will now attend their player development centres.
We hope that the club will continue to grow and with the players & parents support we will.
Next Season Fees
Next season all monthly fees will be collected by standing order and there will be no exceptions to this. No coach from next season will collect fees as this is taking up far too much of the coaches time. Your standing order mandates will be given out in the next few weeks to give to your bank, and the first payment will be 1st August.
Only players who have completed them will return to training on :
July 16th. Broadwood Stadium 6pm-8pm
Training details will be given out with the mandates in a week

Who are interested in 9 of our Under 14's squad refrain from going behind Clyde Soccers back ie Schools, unethical approaches, etc and make their interest known through the official club channels, as some above have already done. The interest will then be passed on to the players, parents and the coach concerned. At this time we have The Scottish Cup Final, many league and cup games still to play and need the players full concentration.
Clyde Soccer will never hold any player back and would encourage any player to make the step up to senior football, but this has to be done in the correct manner from professional clubs. Clyde Soccer will only deal with clubs that identify themselves and work with us.

14's On The Park At Celtic Park
Clyde Soccer's Under 14's provided the half-time entertainment at Celtic's Scottish Cup Game. The club was asked by Graham Diamond, Senior S.F.A. Football Development Officer for Glasgow City Council's "Culture & Sport" Football Development Department to provide 2 teams of 6 players for the game. This was a dream come true for some of the boys, to run out the tunnel at the home of the team they support and I am sure all the players enjoyed their day. Celtic have also provided match tickets for the players and coaches.

New Club Mini-Bus
Press logo for Trucktec website
New Club Mini-Bus
Clyde Soccer & Girls are delighted to announce that we have just purchased a 17-seat minibus to help get teams to games. The bus will be available to teams travelling to games that are a distance away, and for teams going to tournaments and festivals. All coaches over 25 are insured to drive it and all seats are fitted with seat belts
The bus was with Girls' team sponsors "TRUCKTEC" where it was re-sprayed, had coach seats fitted inside and given a full service. All this was all done free of charge by Trucktec, but would have cost in the region of £4,500. Jim Dickson Tyres & Exhausts have also agreed to look afer the Tyres, Exhaust should they need replaced.
So we would like to thank "Cammy-Clyde Girls 13s and Trucktec" and "Jim Dickson" of Jim Dicksons Tyres for their help and support
As one player of the under 9's commented today "It has been Pimped"
