Directions to the Youth Services Center

If driving toward Fort Sam Houston on Harry Wurzbach Road turn left onto Winans Road at the first traffic light south of the intersection of Harry Wurzbach and Rittiman Road.  If driving away from Fort Sam Houston on Harry Wurzbach turn right onto Winans Road at the traffic light on the northwestern corner of Fort Sam Houston National Cemetery.

Continue on Winans Road (the cemetery will be on your right) through the first stop sign to the gate.  After passing through the gate take the first left. This road dead-ends into the Youth Services Center parking lot.  You may park there or along the road that passes to the side (south) of the building.

There is additional parking at the School Age Services Building (at the corner of Winans Road and Dodd Blvd) and the Chapel (across the street from the School Age Services Building).  It is strongly suggested that you park in the parking lot at the School Age Services Building instead of the Youth Center for games on the baseball fields.  Parking areas are identified on the maps below.

Please do not park on Dodd Blvd, which runs between the School Age Services Building and the chapel as the Military Policy may ticket you.

FALL 2022 GAMES PLAYED AT SCHERTZ SOCCER COMPLEX

Games are on Saturday mornings beginning September 17 and ending November 5 at Schertz Soccer Complex- 75 Maske Road, Schertz, TX  78154. 
FT. SAM HOUSTON will be open for practice Monday to Friday, 4pm to 9pm, beginning August 22, 2022.

Policy for  Extreme Cold Weather Conditions

Due to the risk of hypothermia and/or frostbite during cold weather extremes, the following policy has been developed to protect AHFSH athletes, coaches, game workers, officials, and fans:

The time of 2:00 pm is chosen to provide ample time to contact all appropriate people to adjust plans for practices and games, and in most cases, the temperature will not increase significantly after this time of day.  In order to maintain consistency, all temperatures will be taken from The Weather Channel website for the 78234/78209 zip code.

  • If the temperature is equal to or below 32 degrees F at 2:00 pm or during the time of activity prior to 2:00 pm as in the case of many earlier practices or games, all outdoor practices and games should be canceled or moved indoors.
  • If the temperature is not equal to or below 32 degrees F, but the wind chill is equal to or below 20 degrees F then this will meet the same requirements as above.
  • As a general rule, anytime the temperature falls below 50 degrees F it is strongly suggested the athletes and coaches wear appropriate clothing to protect themselves from the wind and temperatures whenever possible. This may include sweats, wind suits, and/or Underarmour type cold gear.

PETS AND SMOKING ARE NOT ALLOWED!

We love our dogs too, but they are not allowed on our fields or in the immediate vicinity. Pets are not allowed past the parking lots or the roads that border the field area.  Smoking is restricted in the same area.
