Amaanah Lions is a free soccer program for refugee youth in Houston. We are part of Amaanah Services, a registered 501c3 charity .
Refugees and immigrants from any background aged 16-25 are welcome to join us
for recreational and competitive play all year round.
​
Games are played weekends at Campbell Sports Park and Bear Creek Park. We train Fridays at 6.30pm at Bayland Park. In the 2025/26 season, Amaanah Lions will play in the HFA Premier Division.

Mission
We're here to help Houston refugees adapt to their new environment through soccer, supporting them as they build friendships, integrate into a new city and find their place in America.
​
Everyone is welcome. If you were born ten thousand miles away or ten minutes, you'll be able to train and play with us.
