Practice Schedule

It is hard to compete against players that train more than you.

Spring practice is held at the indoor facility across from the stadium on Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday. Please see the schedule below.

All teams practice for the year. Team practices and team skills training are not optional. If the facilities are open, we practice, if closed we do not. It is the expectation that all players will actively participate in all official team training sessions, all skill sessions, all tournaments, and all games. Playing time consequences will be determined by your coach at his/her discretion. Excused absences: Summer vacations, school events – meet the teacher etc., illness, family, and religion conflicts. You should notify your team manager or coach of any events you cannot attend. 

Practice weather policy:  If any facilities close due to inclement weather all practices are cancelled. It is hot in Texas in the summer, but soccer goes on including tournaments and practice. More water breaks are in place but do not forget to bring water and hydrate before your event.

Each player must attend all training sessions and games with water, a ball (appropriately filled with air), and wearing soccer socks and shin guards. Coaches will not allow you to train or play without shin guards. Your HPSA practice kit should be worn at all training sessions: Scots practice t-shirt tucked in and practice shorts. Ball Sizes: U7-U8 Size 3, U9-U12 Size 4, U13-U18 Size 5 – U12 indicates the players are 12 years old or under; many players in the U12 age group will start the season at 11 years old, but will turn 12 by the end of the season. Please coaches and players only on the fields. No parents or children on the fields.

As per our annual tradition, the City of UP will be renting out Hyer and UP Elementary Schools for spring activities. Starting this spring, the practice schedules for our younger teams will be relocated to these schools on Mondays and Wednesdays, while the older teams’ schedules will be adjusted accordingly at the indoor facility.

In the event of persistent rainouts on the grass fields, we’ll promptly notify you and revert to the winter indoor schedule.
