Officials with Harris County Precinct 4 and the Gulfton community broke ground July 8 on two new hard-surface mini soccer pitches in Houston’s Gulfton neighborhood.
Located in Burnett-Bayland Park at 6000 Chimney Rock Road, Houston, the July 8 groundbreaking event took place three weeks after FIFA chose Houston as one of the 16 host cities for the 2026 World Cup.
“Soccer is a tool in the building of community, of helping us come together,” Precinct 4 Commissioner Jack Cagle said at the groundbreaking.
The Dynamo, Houston’s major league soccer team, partnered with Harris County to develop 15 mini-pitches across the city and county.
