Austin, traditionally recognized for its live music scene and emerging tech industry, is also developing into a vibrant hub for soccer enthusiasts. From pickup games in local parks to organized supporter groups for Austin FC, the city exhibits a thriving soccer culture.

The Austin Parks and Recreation Department actively promotes soccer through scholarships and programming for children at various recreation centers. The department has engaged in multiple partnerships, including collaborations with Austin FC, 4ATX Foundation, Soccer Assist, and the US Soccer Foundation. These initiatives have led to the addition of mini pitches at Dove Springs District Park, Wooldridge School Park, and Civitan Neighborhood Park.

Further information about public soccer fields and mini pitches can be found at AustinTexas.gov/Soccer. The website also provides locations of Austin's soccer fields, mini pitches, and multipurpose fields.
