AHFSH Youth Soccer welcomes players from 3 years old through 19 years of age who are interested in developing age -appropriate individual and team skills, positive attitudes and good sportsmanship. The league fields recreational, youth academy and competitive club 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.
It is with heartfelt gratitude and admiration that we announce the retirement of Coach Steve Jennings as the Director of Coaching for the Alamo Heights Fort Sam Houston Youth Soccer Club on August 1, 2025. Coach Steve has been a cornerstone of our community, dedicating countless hours during his over 40 years of service to guide our players and shape our club’s success. His leadership has left an indelible mark on the lives of all those he has coached and inspired over the years. As we bid farewell to his tenure as the DOC, we remember his incredible legacy and wish him the very best in this next chapter. You will still see Coach Steve around next season, as he will spend a farewell year with the club coaching a team and assisting with the new DOC’s debut year.
We are thrilled to introduce Coach Chris Sharp as our new Director of Coaching, effective August 1st, 2025. Coach Sharp, who will be retiring as Head coach of the Alamo Heights Girls’ Soccer team this year, brings a wealth of experience, expertise, and a shared commitment to nurturing the growth and development of our young athletes. We are confident that his leadership will continue to uphold the values of our club and propel us forward to new heights! You will see Coach Sharp at our tryouts and summer activities as he gets to know the players and staff of AHFSH better.
Coach Chris Sharp comes to us with 35 years of experience coaching at all levels of soccer. He has been inducted into the Texas Association of Soccer Coaches Hall of Honor, received several additional awards during his tenure at National, State, and local levels, and held the respect of players and parents throughout his career. He has a high school coaching record of 511-144-46, with over 400 of those wins at Alamo Heights High School. When he is not coaching soccer, he enjoys playing soccer with friends, traveling, fishing, and spending time with his family in Michigan.
Please join us in expressing our deepest thanks to Coach Steve and in extending a warm welcome to Coach Sharp. We will be holding a retirement and change of responsibility event in August, so look for more information on that to come out this summer. We look forward to an exciting new chapter for our club and community! If you have any questions, please reach out to the club.
Warm regards,
Your Alamo Heights Fort Sam Houston Youth Soccer Club Board
