As a military family, we have moved around every 2-3 years. My daughter played rec soccer for years before we finally signed her up to SA United. Her coach was able to see the potential in our daughter and shared the same enthusiasm. She has improved tremendously since the transition from Recreational soccer to SA United.

WE OFFER A COMPLETE PLAYER PATHWAY EXPERIENCE FOR ALL SOCCER PLAYERS FROM AGES 4 to 19 YEARS OLD
Welcome to San Antonio United Soccer Club, the premier grass roots standard in south texas soccer. With a philosophy firmly based on development, tradition and our community, we are pushing the boundaries of soccer education.
SA United was formed in 2005 by ambitious young soccer coaches from the British Isles with one thing in mind, spread the love of the sport that so greatly impacted their lives, and the soccer club experience, to as many people as possible in the San Antonio area, do it the right way, and have fun doing it. Since then, the club has grown the right way.
We currently have more than 1,200+ members and have reached thousands of people, who still proudly associate with their club long after they have left. Some went on to play College soccer, some to successful professional careers at home in the U.S. and internationally, some are now back with the club in a coaching capacity. One thing most definitely remains with a graduate of SA United, a love for a sport that they can carry throughout the rest of their lives, a sense of camaraderie, an understanding of teamwork, and a confidence that they are able to succeed in the world.
SA United continue to offer opportunities for all athletes wanting to learn and play the beautiful game, wether that is playing in a non-competitive environment in our recreational soccer program or playing at the highest competitive level available, we have everything that you need. We are always looking for ways to add players to all of our programs so please, enjoy our site and learn more about our history, our philosophy and what opportunities await you.
