Big News: Soccer Stars are Coming to Balboa Park This Summer!
Finding activities that keep your kids active, engaged, and excited can be a challenge, but we have some fantastic news for San Francisco parents. This summer, Soccer Stars—the nation’s premier youth soccer program—is bringing the world’s most popular game to a brand-new location: Balboa Park!
Our program focuses on teaching the fundamentals of soccer in a high-energy, fun, and completely non-competitive environment. Whether your child is a first-time player stepping onto the grass for the very first time or a rising pro looking to sharpen their footwork, our expert coaches are dedicated to making every single class a goal-scoring, fun-filled blast.
To celebrate, we are kicking things off with a FREE Demo Day on Sunday, July 12, 2026! This is the perfect opportunity to try out a class, see our coaching in action, and see just how much fun your little one will have before committing to our subsequent 6-Week Summer Season (running Sundays from July 26 to August 30).

Turn Soccer Class into the Ultimate Family Day Out!
One of the absolute best parts about our new location is the park itself. Balboa Park is an incredible, jam-packed destination for families. Instead of treating soccer class as just another chore on your weekend to-do list, you can easily turn your Sunday morning into a full day of family bonding and outdoor fun.
Here are a few fantastic park features and nearby ideas to help you plan the perfect family Sunday after the final whistle blows:
1. Let Off Extra Steam at the Playground
If your kids still have energy to burn after class, Balboa Park features a vibrant, modern playground. With plenty of structures to climb on, slides, and unique spinning features, it is a safe and exciting space for kids of all ages to explore while parents relax nearby.
2. Cool Off at the Balboa Pool
Did you know the historic Balboa Pool is right on site? After working up a sweat out on the soccer field, there is nothing better than heading inside for a family swim. Be sure to check the San Francisco Recreation & Parks schedule for public swim hours to pack your swimsuits accordingly!
3. Hit the Tennis or Pickleball Courts
Family fitness doesn’t have to stop with soccer. Bring along your rackets and check out the park’s public tennis courts. It’s a great way for older kids or parents to get in a little extra sport time together while enjoying the beautiful summer weather.
4. Pack a Family Picnic in the Sun
Balboa Park offers beautiful green spaces perfect for layout out a blanket. Pack a cooler with your favorite sandwiches, fresh fruit, and cold drinks, and find a sunny patch of grass to unwind. It’s a wonderful, relaxing way to chat with your kids about what they learned in soccer class that morning.
5. Explore Nearby Family-Friendly Neighborhood Spots
If you want to venture just outside the park borders for lunch or a treat, the surrounding Mission Terrace and Outer Mission areas have plenty to offer:
- Grab a Sweet Treat: Treat your soccer stars to ice cream or a pastry at one of the local bakeries along nearby Mission Street—the ultimate post-game reward!
- Hop on BART: Balboa Park is incredibly accessible via the Balboa Park BART and Muni station. If you want to keep the adventure going, you can easily hop on the train for a quick ride to explore other kid-friendly sights across the city.
