Alamo Heights Fort Sam Houston Soccer Club

The Alamo Heights - Fort Sam Houston (AHFSH) youth soccer league was begun in the late 1970's with a goal of providing children within the Alamo Heights and Fort Sam Houston communities the opportunity to play soccer.  Since its inception, AHFSH has always welcomed players who are interested in developing their skills, as well as an appreciation for and understanding of the game of soccer.

AHFSH welcomes players from Under-5 through Under-18 who are interested in developing age-appropriate individual and team skills, positive attitudes and good sportsmanship.  The league fields "recreational", Developmental league and "competitive" teams, but our goal is to provide a league where children have fun, regardless of the level of play in which they may choose to participate.

For players that have signed up and are wondering when practice begins or which team they are on, here is revelant information.

Once the registration closes(September 3rd) , the age group commisioners (see contact list) will begin assigning players to teams.

For existing or returning teams that need players , new players will be assigned. For new teams, the age group commisioner will ask someone from the group to be the coach.

The coach will receive a list of players and will contact players and parents to schedule practice times and location. Coaches will receive uniforms and rosters at or by the coaches meeting on September 8th. If you have any questions please contact your assigned age group commisioner

TOPSoccer is a training and team placement program for young athletes with disabilities, organized by youth soccer association volunteers. The program is designed to bring the opportunity of learning and playing soccer to any boy or girl, ages 5 to 18, who has a mental or physical disability.  AHFSH offers TOPSoccer during the fall season.  

We want to thank our TopSoccer sponsor: Cavender Auto Family.

We need volunteers and "buddies" to make this program a success in San Antonio.  Click here to learn more about this program.

Pictured above are our Director of Training, one of our Buddies ("Coach Lucy") and several of our TOPSoccer participants with their trophies. 

Our Coaches Corner page has been updated to include the modified rules of play applicable to youth soccer and a link to the coaching courses at which coaches can obtain the required coaching license.

Coaches should check the Coaches Corner page periodically for updates and general information.  The page is updated by our Director of Training and includes sample training sessions that have been developed for each age group.
