A Houston Soccer Tradition
The Thirty and Over Recreational Soccer Organization (TORSO) was founded in the early 1980s to offer a fun, competitive, and inclusive soccer experience for adult players aged 30 and up. With co-ed teams, TORSO is a great fit for individuals, couples, and even entire families who want to stay active and enjoy the game together.
Today, TORSO has 40+ teams across four divisions, featuring players of all experience levels — from beginners to former pros. Whether you’re looking for a competitive environment, a more casual game for fitness, or a team that’s just as fun off the field as on it, there’s a place for you here.
We play on Sunday afternoons at parks across Houston, and our community is built around soccer, friendships, and fun. If you still love the game, you’ll fit right in.
TORSO is a co-ed outdoor soccer league for adults age 30 and over. We offer both traditional and small-sided formats, with a focus on competitive play, community, and player safety.

Player Safety & Fair Play:
TORSO has adopted a few modifications to the Laws of the Game to emphasize player safety and well-being while still delivering high-level, competitive matches. Our goal is to foster an environment that is fun, challenging, and respectful.
To maintain balanced competition, teams are promoted or relegated between divisions based on performance.
