Fort Worth Vaqueros Academy
About
Fort Worth Vaqueros USL Academy at Sycamore Park
Fort Worth Vaqueros Academy is the youth-development arm of Fort Worth Vaqueros FC, training at Vaqueros Field in Sycamore Park - a 7v7 turf field built in 2018 from converted 1915-era tennis courts via city partnership.
Programs for Kids
Programming sits within the broader Vaqueros organization spanning youth through pro. Programs include:
- Youth Club
- Academy (development pathway)
- Pathway connection to Men's USL League 2 team
- Pathway connection to Women's WPSL team
- LIGA 7 adult/coed 7v7 leagues at the same facility
What's Included
- State-of-the-art 7v7 turf field at Vaqueros Field (Sycamore Park)
- PUMA apparel partnership across the organization
- Visible top-of-pathway via USL League 2 and WPSL first teams
Experience
The men's first team moves to USL League 2 in 2026, raising the visible pathway for academy players. The Sycamore Park redevelopment story (1915 tennis courts to 2018 turf field) is unusual - few academy facilities have that civic-partnership origin.
