The Texas Lightning Youth Soccer Club was established for the specific purpose of developing a youth soccer program whose goals are to achieve a developmental program in which youth soccer players can train and compete at various levels of competition and have the opportunities to consistently develop and achieve state, regional, national and collegiate soccer accomplishments.

Realization of these goals must be accomplished within the proper framework of building character, self-esteem, confidence and sportsmanship within the youth athlete.

Achievement of these objectives can only be reached through the strength of a qualified coaching staff whose relationship with the player must be of the highest ethical and moral standards.

Texas Lightning Youth Soccer Club has helped to place numerous players on state and Regional Olympic Developmental Teams and has produced five National Team players. The Club has also helped place over 300 players into universities and colleges through soccer scholarships. Some of those colleges are Duke University, Rhodes College, Texas A & M University, West Point Academy, University of Southern California, Radford University, University of South Carolina, Louisiana State University, The Naval Academy, Brown University and many more!
