Congratulations to Connor Glennon!

Connor Glennon, a current TOFC player in the BCSPL (BC Soccer Premier League), is joining the Whitecaps’ residency program. Glennon, a Vernon native, after two years in the TOFC (Thompson Okanagan Football Club) program had been given the invite this week and has accepted the invitation. TOFC supports and encourages players to pursue their soccer goals through player development and is a stepping stone for youth players into programs such as the Whitecaps residency, provincial teams and university placements. Connor has worked hard on his personal development and has shown he deserves the opportunity.

Whitecaps FC Residency is a full-time, fully funded, player development program unlike any other in North America. Residency is designed to maximize a player’s potential on and off the field through a “soccer lifestyle” philosophy linking technical and personal development. By integrating training, education and accommodation, all conveniently situated in Burnaby, Whitecaps FC Residency provides the perfect conditions to develop and prepare elite athletes for the mental and physical demands of professional environments in North America and Europe.
