Background and Discussion:

Houston Women’s Soccer Association (HWSA) is a long-standing sports organization that promotes and develops adult soccer while emphasizing sportsmanship, fellowship, and inclusivity. They are requesting approval to host their Annual Oktoberfest Soccer Tournament at Bear Creek Pioneer Park, where they have held tournaments since 1977. The event will feature multiple women’s and coed divisions, certified referees, and on-site EMS and constables to ensure safety.

 

Expected Impact:

The tournament is expected to strengthen community recreation opportunities by bringing together adult players across multiple skill levels for a safe and organized sporting event. It will support HWSA’s mission of fostering inclusive athletic participation while maintaining long-standing use of Bear Creek facilities. Modest sales of snacks and tournament shirts may also help cover operational costs.

 

Alternative Options:

If this request is not approved the organization will have to find a different venue to hold their event.
