The club just completed their Pre-Labor Day Cup, the second pre-season event in August offered as part of the club's series of tournaments brought to you by DICK'S Sporting Goods. The event brought record breaking number of quality teams (190+) and spectators to four locations on the south side of Houston - Centennial Park, Dad's Club, El Franco Lee Park and Sylvan Rodriguez Park. Teams ranged from the ages of 8-18 (boys / girls) and were provided with a minimum of three games and a chance to progress to a final on the Sunday. The following formats were offered for the teams - 7v7, 9v9, 11v11.

"I would like to thank and recognize our marquee sponsor DICK'S Sporting Goods for all their support of the tournament and being physically on site," said Jason DeVore, Tournament Director. "It's an effort from everybody involved which includes the teams, coaches, sponsors, vendors managers, volunteers, referees that makes this event a fantastic option for teams looking to get a positive start for their fall season."

"DICK’s Sporting Goods is proud to be a partner with HTX Soccer, the #1 youth soccer club in Houston," said Aaron Pisk, Community Marketing Manager.
