I believe the answer to that is no.. I remember reading it someone either on
the EAA LSA web pages or on the AOPA Web.
I will preface this with.. AFAIK (As Far As I Know)

There is no Light Sport Pilot - Glider designation, there is no "approval"
endorsement available from a CFIG.
There are questions on the Private Glider Written Test that are not covered
under the Light Sport Pilot written test. Remember that LS Pilots are
limited to 10,000MSL and below, gliders are not.. so enter airspace
questions, and Oxygen requirements etc.

An "add-on" rating usually means no written required, you will need to
complete the Glider Private Written Test and complete the full FAA Check
Ride for the Private Pilot Glider. I believe your Pilot Certificate would
then read "Private Pilot - Glider", Light Sport Aircraft Privileges with the
LSA endorsements you currently hold. Completing the Private Pilot Glider is
actually a step above Light Sport Pilot.

The number of training hours required per FAR as mentioned by M. Ash are
relevant.. but easily surpassed with proper training.

....from the Sport Pilot certificate? I'm currently working on my
Sport Pilot certificate and when that's done I want to add glider
"approval". I've heard rumors about a "light-sport" category of
glider, but I'm interested in the full monty. Question: Can I "add
on" gliders to a Sport Pilot ticket in the same way I would to a ASEL
certificate?
