Green Bay Glory is an American soccer club based in Ashwaubenon and Appleton, Wisconsin. The organization was founded in 2019 and currently fields a women's squad, which plays in Women's Premier Soccer League, and a men's squad, which plays in the Midwest Premier League.
On January 11, 2019, Kerry Geocaris and Melissa Cruz-Cuene announced a new Women's Premier Soccer League (WPSL) team in Green Bay. Geocaris, a Green Bay native, had previously played for the Milwaukee Torrent in the WPSL and cited a lack of competitive women's soccer opportunities in the Green Bay area as a major factor in forming the Glory.[2] The team was announced to play in the newly-formed Midwest Division as one of 29 expansion teams for the league.[3] [4] During the 2019 season, they played at Aldo Santaga Stadium at the University of Wisconsin–Green Bay.
The team's 2020 and 2021 seasons were cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Prior to the 2022 season, the Green Bay Glory departed the WPSL and joined the USL W League, and moved to Capital Credit Union Park in Ashwaubenon. The team added former United States women's national team forward and Appleton, Wisconsin, native Sarah Hagen to the coaching staff.[5]
The team returned to the WPSL for the 2024 season.[6]
