Recreational Program Fall 2026

Saturday marked the start of something special across Greater Houston: the opening weekend of the 2026 Fall Recreational Program, proudly presented in partnership with TDECU. More than 3,550 players laced up and took to the fields, kicking off a season that promises to be one of HTX Soccer's biggest yet.

By the Numbers
This fall's program is bigger and more connected than ever, spanning 10 locations across the Greater Houston area:

- 525 teams
- 1,900+ matches
- 350 volunteer coaches
- 12,000+ weekend spectators 

Families and fans filled fields across Clear Lake, Friendswood, Humble, Katy/Fulshear, Kingwood, League City, Sienna, Tomball, The Woodlands, and Woodforest, proof that the spirit of grassroots soccer runs strong in every corner of our city.  Whether players are stepping onto the pitch for the very first time or returning for another season with their HTX family, this fall is shaping up to be filled with fun, growth, and community connection.  The season will conclude on Saturday, November 14.
