Probably one of the worst clubs when it comes to fundamentals.. Also they sub in players from higher skill levels to the lower levels if they think they are going to be beat

My son was there for ECNL, coaches are over-rated , they are only interested in collecting monthly fees and uniforms money.We didn't enjoy the atmosphere there. My soon left the club and switch to Austin Texans at that time. Never came back!

Excellent programs & a real character builder for kids. My daughter played rec & now JR Academy. Her skills in soccer & social skills in life have both advanced. The competition is fun & most parents are very cool. There is always that 1 dad but overall top to bottom Lonestar is a great club & I have no hesitation recommending them.

We are on our 2nd season with lone star and my 6 year old son is obsessed with soccer. We were at Justin lane last year and Morrow street this year, both of which are directed by Sam. Sam is very attentive and somehow know just about every kids name when the season starts. My son loves each coach he has had including summer camp. We didn't win many games last season, so it definitely isn't a focus on winning so much as player development. I actually am glad they didn't win much at the beginning Because when they started winning they were so appreciative and saw how teamwork got them there. My son
