    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE HOUSTON DYNAMO, HOUSTON DASH, TEXAS RUSH SOCCER CLUB & SPACE CITY FC JOIN FORCES TO FORM NEW YOUTH CLUB HOUSTON – (Wednesday, Feb. 8, 2017) – The Houston Dynamo, Houston Dash, Texas Rush Soccer Club and Space City Football Club have partnered to create a new organization poised to transform the landscape of youth soccer in Houston. The new partnership is designed to build a unique youth soccer organization that will enhance the experience for players of all skill levels. By combining resources, the organization will be able to provide a full range of programming and a complete pathway for the beginner through to the collegiate and professional levels. “We are delighted to partner with a successful professional organization like the Houston Dynamo and Houston Dash,” said Don Gemmell, Technical Director for Texas Rush Soccer Club. “I believe we have a unique opportunity to build a youth soccer club that does not exist in the Houston market. It’s a club that will improve player development opportunities for boys and girls at every level and built to compete nationally.” The newly formed club has more than 5,500 youth soccer players and makes up one of the largest youth soccer clubs in Texas. The club has 3,300 recreational players and 2,200 competitive players competing in 15 Houston- area facilities. “This is an exciting opportunity to make a positive impact on thousands of young boys and girls,” said Randy Evans, Executive Director of Space City FC. “There is a true sense of commitment from the professional and youth sides to work together to best serve the greater Houston soccer community.

  • SAN JACINTO COLLEGE Your Goals. Your College
    Soccer 2009 www.sanjacsports.com 2009 Season Outlook 18-2-2 overall record. National runner-up. Second-straight Mid-South District championship. Fifth-consecutive Region XIV title. Three NJCAA all-Americans. To say the 2008 season was successful would be an understatement. It was the best season in school history. Head Coach David Santesteban enters his sixth season with a young squad, after losing one player to the professional ranks last season and three to NCAA institutions, but that doesn’t mean their goals are any different. “If we can master the basics, become organized and efficient in tactical transition, as well as become the strongest physically, then we will always have a chance to contend for championships,” he said. Santesteban has assembled a balanced recruiting class, as San Jac will have to fill the spot held by Kieron Bernard, an NJCAA All-American who is now playing professionally with the Austin Aztex, and the departure of several other key players. Ready to step in are a couple members of the Houston Dynamo South Texas Academy in defenders Israel Nava (Mission / Veterans Memorial HS) and Alfonso Magaña (Brownsville / Los Fresnos HS), as well as the Dynamo Youth Academy’s U-18 Gerardo Gomez (Houston / Continental Academy) and Samir Peña (Houston / North Shore HS). Nava helped the Patriots to two district championships and was a first-team All-District and All- Valley member as a senior. Magaña led the Falcons to their first ever playoffs as a senior and hopes to continue that success at San Jac. Peña, a forward, helped the Mustangs to the state finals as a junior and senior.

  • Glenn Davis Is One of America’S Premier Soccer Broadcasters
    Glenn Davis is one of America’s premier soccer broadcasters. He has served as a commentator for ESPN’s World Cup broadcasts in 2002 and 2006 and will be part of NBC’s Olympic coverage in London this summer. Davis also has a long-standing gig as play-by-play broadcaster for the Dynamo of Major League Soccer in Houston, where he makes his home. He also hosts The Soccer Hour with Glenn Davis on Sportstalk 790 AM in Houston. With the $110 million BBVA Compass Stadium about to open for Major League Soccer in downtown Houston this spring, we wanted to talk to Glenn about a very different era in Houston (and American) pro soccer. We wanted to talk to Glenn about his own playing career during the dark days of the mid-1980s. When Davis came out of college in 1983, the nationwide North American Soccer League was on its last legs. It would fold a year later. On the world stage, the United States failed to qualify for the 1986 World Cup. It was the ninth consecutive time that the Americans were left out and would mark the bottoming out point for the U.S. men, who have qualified for every tournament since. Davis turned pro with the Pennsylvania Stoners of the American Soccer League and began a soccer odyssey familiar to many American pros of the era, moving all over the country and splitting time between the indoor game and various short-lived, low-budget outdoor leagues. He spent the longest stretch of his career with the Houston Dynamos, a club which at some points couldn’t even find a pro league to play in.

Hale, Sr. Current Value ($/Mil): N/A Team Website @BaltimoreBlast Stadium: Royal Farms Arena Date Built: 1962 Facility Cost ($/Mil): N/A Facility Financing: N/A Facility website UPDATE: The Baltimore Business Journal stated there is a new proposal for a $450 million waterfront arena along the Inner Harbor of Baltimore. It is planned to hold 15-16,000 seats. This would replace the fifty-two-year old Royal Farms Arena. The proposal by Cordish Companies still needs approval by the city, and it is still in the exploratory stage. NAMING RIGHTS: The First Mariner Bank’s naming rights contract ended in December 2012 when it was renamed Baltimore Arena. In September 2014, the arena was renamed Royal Farms Arena after an eighteen-month search for a purchaser. Royal Farms will pay $250,000 annually over five years for the naming rights and have the option to renegotiate the deal after five years. © Copyright 2015, National Sports Law Institute of Marquette University Law School Page 1 Team: Brownsville Barracudas Principal Owner: Oscar Ruvalcaba Current Value ($/Mil): N/A Team Website @BarracudasFC Stadium: Barracudas FC Sports Complex Date Built: 2004 Facility Cost ($/Mil): N/A Facility Financing: N/A Facility Website UPDATE: The 2014–15 season was the first season for the Barracudas as a professional club.

  • Download Michael's Press
    MICHAEL CHABALA SOCCER PLAYER. ENTREPRENEUR. SPEAKER. MODEL. BIOGRAPHY Michael Chabala is a former Major League Soccer player and founder of sphere. After playing collegiately at the University of Washington and graduating with a degree in Economics in 2006, he was drafted to the Houston Dynamo – arguably one of the best teams in MLS history, winning back-to-back championships in 2006 and 2007. Simultaneously, Michael put his heart and SOLE into the Houston community while biding his time to get on the pitch. Traded to Portland in 2011 and then to Washington D.C. in 2013, he found himself prematurely exiting the league in 2014 following his final season with the Houston Dynamo. When the lights went down, he struggled to connect with friends, keep inspired and maintain his physique while working through the arduous transition. After experiencing the “corporate grind,” Michael played back to his strengths and realized his true calling to #keeptheballrolling. Searching for a workout that matched the intensity, team mentality and exhilaration that soccer provided, he put his cleats back on. Learning from the field and mistakes made, Michael started to play in a different direction from his previous 25 years. He focused on quality of play instead of minutes on the field, connecting people rather than passes and doing more with a ball than just scoring goals. From that, sphere was born - a soccer-inspired fitness concept and signature game-changing class. Huddle up and get ready to practice like you play!
