HEAT GUIDELINES
For the purposes of FWYSA recreational play, we will use the WBGT guidelines for closures only. Before temps reach the cancellation level, it will be up to parents on what your child can handle. Player safety comes first, so we will never question a parent’s decision to keep their child out of whatever conditions they deem questionable, be it cold or heat. Please always make sure your child brings PLENTY of WATER to practices and games. A large jug with 32 ounces or more is best. Coaches are also receiving this information and should give plenty of breaks during practices. 2 minutes every 12-15 minutes should suffice in normal warm conditions.
WBGT Monitoring: Staff will be out on the fields measuring WBGT, which accounts for air temperature, humidity, wind, and solar radiation, during outdoor activities. This replaces the traditional heat index and provides a more accurate assessment of heat stress risk for participants wearing uniforms or equipment in direct sunlight
Upcoming Events
You may have noticed the September is Kyle Kindness Month signs at the Benbrook fields.
The Kyle Hicks Memorial Fund is celebrating acts of kindness throughout our community, and we would love for our FWYSA families to participate!
Players, parents, grandparents, coaches, referees, and volunteers are encouraged to share a kindness story—something you or someone you know has done to brighten another person’s day.
Share your kindness story here is link
You can submit as many stories as you would like. Some will be shared beginning September 1st.
Then, on Saturday, September 26th, we will celebrate together at the fields with the Chick-fil-A Cow, Jato Dinosaur, door prizes, and featured kindness stories! More details will be coming soon.
Help us fill September with stories that inspire others. Sometimes the smallest act of kindness can make the biggest difference!
Thank you to the Kyle Hicks Memorial Fund for partnering with FWYSA.

We have had a few break-ins this weekend please make sure you put all valuables out of sight. The thieves are looking for things left out and also if they see a woman without a purse they go back to their car and look. We have contacted the police and asked for more drive-thrus but it starts with being smart HIDE them away!
To all our FWYSA and Outside Teams, we wanted you to be aware of a new league policy. Recently there have been way too many incidents around North Texas Soccer involving abusive behavior toward referees. It is especially disturbing when directed toward younger referees who are simply trying to learn their trade just as the young players are.

FWYSA News
FWYSA had a great night at the North Texas Soccer All General Meeting (AGM)
On August 1st Katelynn Moore and Courtney Shepard were recognized by North Texas Soccer for being outstanding and received the “of the year” award.
Katelynn Moore – Young Female Referee of the Year
Courtney Shepard – TOPSoccer Buddy of the Year
Both Katelynn and Courtney received the Kyle Hicks Memorial Award which is given to those who serve in their community, making it stronger, kinder, and better for all. This award includes a $500 “thank you” gift.
FWYSA Referee Appreciation Dinner –On Thursday, July 23, 2026, FWYSA hosted an appreciation dinner to recognize and celebrate the referees that work in the Fort Worth Youth Soccer Association program. Referees and their families were invited to attend this dinner to see the many wonderful referees who help make Fort Worth Soccer one of the best associations in the country.
In addition, five outstanding referees were presented with the Kyle Hicks Memorial Award and received a $500 “thank you” gift for their hard work and commitment to being pillars in the community both on and off the field. All five have been refereeing for FWYSA for 4 or more years and will continue to referee.
Pictured from left to right:

Please read these short writeups of why these 5 referees were awarded the Kyle Hicks Memorial Award.
Thomas “Tad” Dellinger
Started refereeing for FWYSA in 2014
Tad served our country in the US Air Force for 20 years. Tad has done many, many games.
This last year, I asked Tad to help me with a very important task – team up with the newest on the U7 games.
By having Tad’s reliable, steady help, our program is stronger. Being a referee is intimidating. It helps to have a smiling face,
someone next to them to answer questions, offer helpful feedback and a whole lot of praise.
Thank you for instilling confidence in so many.
Olivia Taylor
Started refereeing for FWYSA in 2023
What a remarkable young lady. Two summers in a row, she has served her church and gone on a mission’s trip
to share the gospel of Christ with many kids. She just returned from Taiwan, and her favorite part was seeing
kid’s faces light up when she told them about Jesus. Olivia is one of the kindest young referees.
Often when I have young refs do their first middle at the U9/10 level, I pair them up with Olivia. Olivia works all age groups and is loving it!
Thank you for being so reliable and helpful
JD Lambert
Started refereeing for FWYSA in 2023
I have had JD primarily work over at our Westside location. I want to make sure that Westside runs extra smooth so
Monica can focus her efforts on welcoming fans and parents. His work ethic is strong.
He commits to giving each game his best. He volunteers for MSM – Middle School Ministries – discipling and leading young people.
JD recently returned from a mission’s trip to El Salvador where he helped put on soccer camps for 500 kids.
Soccer and Jesus – JD, is a person I can count on.
Julian Gonzalez
Started refereeing for FWYSA in 2023
Julian worked most weekends and was 100% reliable, punctual, professional in appearance and attitude.
Often as I checked referees in, I noticed Julian taking it upon himself to welcome in our newest, younger referees.
He would make sure showing up wasn’t so intimidating – he would show them the ropes. Several times,
I offered Julian additional games with little notice. Often, he said, “sure” and other times, he would say he was already
committed to helping with Diane’s Kids. (FWYSA’s TOPSoccer Program – a community-based training and
team placement for young athletes with disabilities). He enjoyed serving in this awesome program
so much that he also volunteered to help with summer camps with Diane’s Kids.
Thank you for being a man of your word, being someone I can count on.
Daniel Keyes
Started refereeing for FWYSA in 2023
Daniel’s positive, “can do” attitude has served him very well on the fields. Because Daniel showed up to every game prepared,
knowing what was expected – rules of competition, he displayed incredible confidence from the start.
It wasn’t long before I paired up newer referees with Daniel because I knew he would also offer great
encouragement to our newer referees. Encouragement and solid instruction when needed. At training sessions,
I oftenthers important wisdom of “how to serve the game with confidence.”
Daniel is a natural leader. Thank you for making our referee program stronger
