The San Jacinto Independence Youth Soccer Association (SJIYSA) name was officially established in 2021, replacing the East Lake Houston Youth Soccer Association (ELHYSA) by name only. The San Jacinto Independence Youth Soccer Association will continue to be an affiliate member association of the South Texas Youth Soccer Association by way of ELHYSA.

Through our 7 member clubs, the San Jacinto Independence Youth Soccer Association offers quality recreational and competitive level youth soccer programs across the east and northeast Harris County, Liberty County and west Chambers County areas.

In addition, teams from our member clubs compete in various recreational and competitive level leagues and tournaments throughout the Houston/Harris County area and beyond.
