What the club offers

Two core pathways anchor the club. The Youth Academy bridges recreational soccer in Bryan/College Station with the competitive track for boys ages 5–9. The Competitive program serves boys ages 10–18 who train year-round, travel for league matches, and compete in tournaments. Competitive teams are tiered by color level (Black through Gold) within birth-year groups, and many rosters compete in regional leagues that include travel to northwest Houston venues such as Cypress and Waller. Cavalry is a member of the South Texas Champions League, aligning local teams with a player-first league philosophy.

Programs and seasons

Youth Academy runs in fall and spring semesters with a 12-week format: four weeks of two weeknight training sessions, then eight weeks that add a game night. Fall training typically begins in late August with games starting in late September; spring follows a January–April rhythm with school-calendar breaks. Academy players are placed by age and ability without tryouts.

Competitive players register for annual tryouts, train three weeknights, and play weekly league games across fall and spring. Fall competitive training generally starts in early August with league games in mid-September; spring training resumes in January. Playing time is earned at the competitive level and reflects attendance, effort, skill, and match context. Uniforms come through Capelli Sport and are purchased separately from club dues.

Training locations and travel

Home training for academy and competitive ages takes place in College Station, primarily at Veterans Park (3101 Harvey Road). Most competitive league games require travel to the northwest Houston corridor, so families should plan for regional drives on weekends. The club also hosts community events such as the Aggieland Classic, futsal leagues, and holiday skill clinics at Veterans Park for players across the area.

Costs and financial support

Youth Academy registration is $350 for the annual program, or $250 for a single semester with an additional $150 for a second semester. Competitive registration dues are $1,799 for the year-long program, with installment plans available and a $100 volunteer credit option. Competitive dues cover professional training three nights per week, league and game fees, and at least two tournaments; uniforms, player travel expenses, and optional academy tournaments are extra.

Need-based financial aid applies to the Competitive program only. Families invited after tryouts can apply through PlayMetrics; awards consider household income, size, and hardship, and recipients remain responsible for uniforms and travel. Donations to the nonprofit support player assistance, coaching education, and efforts to keep dues affordable.

Tryouts and registration

Competitive tryouts for the 2026–2027 season are free to register. Scheduled sessions in May group U10–U15 at Veterans Park fields 12 and 13, while U16 and older players attend open practices from early May through late May. Returning players must register for tryouts each year. Coaches evaluate technical and tactical ability, physical readiness, work ethic, and respect for teammates and officials. Invitations, wait-list placement, or roster cuts are communicated through PlayMetrics after evaluations. Players who miss main tryout dates may be evaluated at practices.
