About
Katy Youth Soccer Club (KYSC) is a volunteer-run 501(c)(3) nonprofit that has served Katy and West Houston for more than forty years. The club centers on recreational soccer for boys and girls from about age four through nineteen, with local games at Katy Park, at least fifty percent playing time guaranteed in recreational matches, and fall and spring seasons built around neighborhood-style teams and volunteer coaches.
Recreational soccer and player experience
Programming stresses fun, skill-building, confidence, teamwork, and sportsmanship in an inclusive environment. Teams form in summer for fall and in winter for spring; age commissioners usually group players by school and where families live when roster space allows. Households with more than one child in KYSC may receive a modest multi-child discount. A board-level player development coordinator supports extra training and growth opportunities tied to club pathways.
Games, seasons, and typical fees
Games typically take place on Saturdays, with some older divisions also using Sundays, at Katy Park, commonly between about 8:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. on Saturdays. Fall opening day is usually around early September; spring usually begins in early March. Most recreational seasons include about eight league games, with makeup dates toward the end when weather forces cancellations. Recreational registration fees commonly range from about $110 to $140 depending on age group. That fee bundle typically covers a team jersey, shorts, socks, and an end-of-season medal or trophy. Cleats are optional; an appropriately sized ball (sizes 3, 4, or 5 by age) is optional but should be labeled with the player’s name if brought to training or games.
EDPL and supplemental program tracks
Beyond standard recreational age-group teams, KYSC lists separate GotSport programs for EDPL registration and seven-a-side tracks aimed at families following that competitive pathway. Season dates, eligibility, and fees for those tracks follow the active program entries rather than the standard recreational matrix.
Practices, fields, and gameday logistics
Practices usually run one or two evenings a week at times volunteer coaches set to fit their rosters, often confirmed at a preseason team parent meeting. The soccer complex at Katy Park is near Morton Road and Franz Road (about 24927 Morton Road, Katy, Texas 77493 on club maps), with lower-numbered fields toward the north end and higher numbers toward the south. County-managed parking is shared with other park users, including Katy Little League, so extra travel buffer around kickoffs helps. Posted field rules include a daily 7:00 p.m. turnover when another team is waiting, Monday–Thursday evening lights about 6:30–9:45 p.m., reserved practice areas for partner club use on certain fields, and strict Friday rules about not moving goals or flags ahead of Saturday games. Field questions or violation reports go to fields@katyyouthsoccer.com.
Registration, waitlists, and walk-up options
Enrollment runs online through GotSport for fall and spring cycles, with walk-up registration dates announced alongside online windows. Completing payment is required before a player is fully registered and assigned to a team. After standard registration closes, waitlist programs may still place players if roster spots open; waitlist flows may include a late-registration fee, and cards are often charged only after a player is offered and accepts a roster spot. New families arriving mid-cycle should contact the age commissioner for their division to ask about remaining capacity.
Affiliations and how to reach volunteers
KYSC operates through STYSA with ties in the national youth soccer pathway (USYSA and USSF). There is no central phone queue; volunteer board members and age commissioners respond by email. General registration and administrative questions go to admin@katyyouthsoccer.com. Coaching, co-ed, girls, boys, referee, and other portfolios list dedicated addresses on the board contact page. Player development questions go to player-dev@katyyouthsoccer.com. The mailing address for club business is 1450 W. Grand Parkway S., Suite G #135, Katy, TX 77494.
