H-Town Soccer Academy — Houston Parks and Recreation

H-Town Soccer Academy is part of Houston Parks and Recreation’s effort to create a competitive bridge for players who want more structure than an introductory league. The department describes its aim as making coached club soccer available in communities with fewer opportunities; the Academy price table groups players from U7–U8 through U13–U19. A related Soccer for Success program is described as a free after-school recreational feeder led by coach-mentors. Its page does not show a current enrollment calendar, so families should ask whether registration is open at a nearby school or park.

Published Fall 2026 competitive fees are $250 for U7–U8, $275 for U9–U10, $300 for U11–U12 and $315 for U13–U19. The Academy says scholarships are considered case by case for low-income players; ask about eligibility and deadlines. Its fall tryout notice invited competitive and elite players to form teams around Milby and Alief Park, but the season is already underway in late October. The current field page lists Milby Park Fields, 2001 Central Street, as the main location and Soccer Office. Confirm the team’s assigned pitch and practice calendar by phone.

Milby’s southeast Houston location can suit families from nearby neighborhoods, but the Academy says it draws players from surrounding communities and competes across the city and nearby areas. A team may therefore travel beyond its practice field. H-Town lists youth-soccer affiliations and tournament activity, so ask what league, age group, uniform and travel expenses apply. Soccer for Success is a separate free entry point, not the same program as the competitive Academy. Review the current fee and scholarship information before accepting a place.
