SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT 5/16/2025
​
We are excited to announce a dynamic new partnership between North Shore United Soccer Club and Germantown Soccer Club. We are two community-driven organizations with proud histories of player development, along with a shared commitment to growing the game in Southeast Wisconsin.
​​
A Legacy of Player Development and Community Impact
Founded in 1978 as Cedarburg Soccer Club and then rebranded to North Shore United in 2010, North Shore United has grown into one of Wisconsin’s premier soccer clubs, known for its commitment to excellence, both on and off the field. NSU is home to the highest credentialed coaching staff in the state of Wisconsin, providing a professional and development-focused environment for players at every level. With nationally recognized platforms like the Girls Academy League and the USYSA Club vs. Club Premier boys platform, NSU has a proven track record of preparing athletes for collegiate, professional, and national team opportunities.
​
Germantown Soccer Club has been a staple in the community for over 40 years, offering quality recreational and competitive soccer programs to families in the Germantown area and beyond. With a strong emphasis on sportsmanship, skill-building, and a fun, inclusive atmosphere, GSC has introduced generations of young players to the game and fostered a deep love of soccer in the region.
​​
Partnering for a Stronger Future
Through this collaboration, North Shore United will provide Germantown Soccer Club with key support across several areas:
-
Administrative assistance to help streamline and strengthen Germantown’s soccer operations;
-
Coaching support and ongoing education based on NSU’s proven “The North Shore Way” training methodology;
-
Regular coaching development sessions led by NSU’s professional staff; and
-
Integration of Germantown’s Recreational teams into NSU’s in-house Rec League, which includes Grafton Rangers, Cedarburg Strikers, and Mequon United.
This exciting partnership creates a clear player development pathway for GSC athletes—from their earliest playing days to the most competitive platforms in the nation. The Girls Academy League houses both National Top Tier and Aspire Regional Level talent pools and is regarded as the premier national platform for elite female soccer players. High-level, competitive opportunities for boys are achieved through North Shore United’s established boys programming and the USYSA Club vs. Club Premier League, offering top-tier competition and advancement opportunities for Regional and National championships.
​
Together, we are building a stronger, more connected soccer community —united by a shared mission to provide high-quality, community-focused soccer experiences for players of all ages and skill levels.
We’re proud to announce this partnership and are excited for what’s ahead!
