We started Glory on the Grass Tournaments after looking for tournaments that featured a 5V5 format in the area and found none. 

5V5 is BIG in England, and we found options in the eastern side of the state and up and down the east coast, but they were too far to attend. 

We have experience running soccer tournaments and leagues, and felt that, in light of the US Youth Soccer changes, the area needed some 5V5 tournaments!
