The St. Louis Scott Gallagher Soccer Club (SLSG) is a sports club dedicated to the development and advancement of all levels of soccer in the St. Louis metropolitan area of Missouri and Illinois.

The result of the 2007 merger of three of the area's leading soccer clubs (St. Louis/Busch Soccer Club, Scott Gallagher Soccer Club, and Metro United Soccer Club), SLSG sponsors 275 teams for boys and girls in age groups from under-6 through under-20, including U.S. Soccer Development Academy programs.

In addition to teams and leagues, the organization sponsors such activities as training camps, specialized physical training, manager/coach training, and nine seasonal tournaments for boys and girls age group teams from throughout the U.S. and Canada.

SLSG is headquartered at World Wide Technology Soccer Park in Fenton, Missouri. The organization also has facilities in Creve Coeur and Cottleville, Missouri and Collinsville, Illinois.[1]

A unit of the organization, SLSG Pro LLC, owns and operates Saint Louis FC, a team in the professional United Soccer League that plays home matches in the 5,500 seat Marshall Wireless Stadium at World Wide Technology Soccer Park.[2]
