About Egg Harbor Township Soccer Club (EHTSC)
Established in 2000 – Built on Community, Driven by Passion
For over 20 years, the Egg Harbor Township Soccer Club (EHTSC) has been a vital part of the South Jersey soccer landscape. Founded in 2000 with a mission to serve local youth, the club has become a cornerstone of athletic and personal development in Atlantic County. With programs ranging from early grassroots soccer to competitive travel teams, EHTSC is dedicated to providing a high-quality, inclusive soccer experience for players of all skill levels and backgrounds.
Community-Focused, Player-Driven:
Our roots run deep in Egg Harbor Township and the surrounding communities. We are a club built by families, volunteers, and coaches who believe in the power of sport to inspire growth, connection, and confidence. Every coach, board member, and parent plays a part in creating an uplifting, respectful environment where children can thrive.
Our Mission:
EHTSC exists to promote the game of soccer while developing young athletes into confident, respectful, and responsible individuals. We focus on long-term development not just immediate results, helping players build technical skills, tactical awareness, and strong character that will serve them far beyond the field.
EHT & CSA
The partnership between Egg Harbor Township Soccer Club as a new affiliate with Cedar Stars Academy aligns with the launch of the new Cedar Stars Atlantic County Division, a major step forward in expanding high-level soccer development in South Jersey. This new division will work closely with CSA’s well-established Monmouth Division as well as ur affiliate divisions, creating a seamless and strategic pipeline for player progression.
Together, these divisions form a unified regional structure that strengthens the pathway from grassroots to elite competition. Egg Harbor players will now have a direct connection to advanced development programs, elite training environments, and exposure to some of the top leagues in the country, including MLS Next and the National Academy League (NAL).
As players rise through the ranks in the Egg Harbor affiliate program, this integrated CSA model ensures they won't hit a ceiling at the local level. Instead, by U13, top players will be evaluated and guided into higher-tier opportunities within the CSA Atlantic County and Monmouth divisions. These divisions offer year-round development platforms, competitive league play, and direct access to college recruitment and national-level competition.
For families and players in Egg Harbor Township and surrounding communities, this partnership represents not just a new badge—but a new belief in what’s possible. The future is clear: local talent, elevated through a professional pathway, right in their own backyard.
