This unofficial street soccer court was created as part of the Houston Town Futsal Ball-A-Block program. These weekend pickups at The Block are free to play, but donations are appreciated to help maintain the space.

Ball-A-Block Program
Ball-A-Block is our version of the Adopt-A-Block program, but in the process of picking up litter, we are also creating open spaces for public use where Houstonians can play street soccer. Essentially, this is our DIY approach to making use of dilapidated asphalt surfaces and/or concrete structures and flipping them into pop-up futsal courts for pubic use.

Location
The Block street soccer court is located in at EaDog Park (next to 8th Wonder Brewery) at 2300 Polk St.

Post-Game / True Anomaly Brewing
As our East Downtown pickup partner and helping us bring awareness to our Ball-A-Block program, we invite everyone to True Anomaly Brewing afterwards for discounted drinks and to talk the beautiful game.

How We Play

Don't be a dick (don't be the one killing the vibe)
5v5 (no goalies)
1st goal wins (5:00 minute games if no goal scored)
King of the Court (winner stays)
You shank, you shag (you kick the ball off the court then you get it)
What to Bring

Flats (court surface is concrete)
Sunscreen
Water
Parking
There is parking just in front of the court, but the lot has a lot of potholes so park at your own risk. We recommend parking on Bell St behind the court where you can then walk on the trail up to the court.

Cost
