About Us

The Gray Ducks build and place teams in multiple leagues and formats in Minnesota. We have over 10 teams year round across 5 days of the week serving more than 300 community athletes. 

• We have teams who are highly competitive, and some that are moderate oriented. Leagues by nature are competitive in focus, few beginner level spots open each year. Let us know your preference!
• In Financial Need and Want to Play? We provide scholarship opportunities.
• Want to give back? We have non-player opportunities to manage, coach, or otherwise support through volunteer time or monetary contribution.

*Compared to the other LGBT club in Minnesota, Gray Ducks soccer is 8x the size (they have 22 roster spots as of May 2018, Gray Ducks has 177 roster spots as of May 2018). The Gray Ducks have also deployed independent teams to LGBT tournaments in Las Vegas, Chicago and Paris in 2018, where as the other club partnered with another club to send a team to one tournament. 

... an organization in Minnesota that plays soccer in a variety of experience levels, formats and leagues. We match players with teams based on their interest and experience. We are more than a soccer club. We are a community of Minnesotans and beyond who are finding strength in numbers to spread fitness, education and cheer. We come to play soccer at all levels and stay for the friendships.

We are a mentoring club with member helping member on and off the field. There are relationships and friendships that blossom as our teams often are comprised of an eclectic grouping of persons. While some have known each other for decades, others are transplants to the Twin Cities. Our programs help our players in need and those of theirs in need. We provide opportunities and promote adult soccer affordably without regard to age, level of experience, skill level, race, national origin, sexual orientation, religion and socio-economic status. We are unique, and that is what makes us a strong and exciting adult activity group. 

We believe the benefits of organized soccer are numerous and it is our mission to provide adults with quality soccer opportunities that:

• Promote fun, entertainment and satisfaction for all participants
• Promote health and fitness through physical activity
• Provide a safe environment for LGBT and minority persons through a spirit of fair play, sportsmanship and acceptance. 
• Provide coaches, parents, spectators and soccer enthusiasts with venues to play the game
• Offer friendly competition at various levels
• Develop soccer skills and interest in the game
• Encourage teamwork, camaraderie and friendship

Gray Ducks Soccer strives to be an all inclusive soccer club, which reaches players across a broad spectrum, including those new to soccer, former youth players, weekend warriors, and the most advanced competitors.  Our program is built around quality with experienced leadership, responsible leagues and superb fields.  We anticipate all of our members will encounter a rewarding and satisfying experience for many seasons to come.
