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.
