Tony Glavin (born 29 April 1958) is a Scottish former professional footballer who played as a midfielder in both Scotland and the United States, making over 300 career appearances.
Born in Glasgow, Glavin spent time in the Scottish Football League with both Queen's Park and Hamilton Academical, before playing in the United States (in both the North American Soccer League and the Major Indoor Soccer League) for the Philadelphia Fury, the St. Louis Steamers, and the Kansas City Comets.
On 9 February 1987, the St. Louis Steamers fired head coach Pat McBride and replaced him with Glavin. Glavin then worked as an Assistant for the Kansas City Comets, playing a handful of games for them. In August 1990, he was hired to coach the Dayton Dynamo of the American Indoor Soccer Association. In 1994, he founded the "Tony Glavin Soccer Club" in Cottleville, Missouri. In December 2005, the United Soccer Leagues awarded a franchise to Glavin and his partners, which became the St. Louis Lions, to which Glavin was also named as Head Coach of the team, known as the St. Louis Lions. In December 2015 he was announced as the new headcoach of the St. Louis Ambush.
