Diesel’s Skill Builders is an innovative new program from the Houston Dynamo FC and Houston Dash, targeted at children ages 2-8 – and their parents. Our professionally trained and licensed youth coaches will visit your child’s school five times over the course of the semester focusing on ball mastery and technical development. At each session, they’ll teach the kids soccer skills designed to help young children develop balance, coordination and agility in a fun way.
Futbolito in the City powered by Shell Energy provides free soccer programming and free play to youth in the greater Houston area. Houston Dynamo FC and the Houston Dash will provide free coaching for kids ages 6-14 for 90 minutes, once a week for ten weeks (split into two five-week sessions). Futbolito in the City is hosted at local parks, schools and Houston Dynamo FC/Dash mini pitch locations. This program uses the power of soccer to provide an opportunity for youth to pursue their interest in playing the sport and gaining new skills at zero cost to their families. Kids will register for each program via online registration. Participants will have the opportunity to receive prizes including Dynamo FC/Dash gear, tickets, autographs and the chance to meet Dynamo FC/Dash players.

Mini-pitches created in parks across the city allow a great place for the youth of Houston to be introduced to the beautiful game. Currently, there are 12 pitches in 9 parks in Houston, Houston Dynamo FC and the Houston Dash have committed to building three mini-pitches a year for five years.
The Kicks for Kids program offers businesses the opportunity to bring underprivileged children out to a Houston Dynamo or Houston Dash game. Through the program, corporations have the ability to purchase tickets to upcoming Dynamo or Dash home matches, which Dynamo Charities then distributes to local children's charities and schools. These valuable donations allow children, who would not otherwise be able to, the opportunity to enjoy a positive morale-building experience at PNC Stadium.
