why ayso?

the ayso way

AYSO's vision is to provide world class youth soccer programs that enrich children's lives. We do that by developing and delivering quality youth soccer programs that promote a fun, family environment based on AYSO's Six Philosophies.

A Complete Program

When you register with AYSO, you get a complete program. Your registration fee includes the following:

  • 16 games (8 in the fall and 8 in the spring).

  • Trained Coaches and Referees who have undergone background checks.

  • Approximately 20 weeks of coaching.

  • 6 additional PowerSkills coaching sessions with some of our most experienced coaches.

  • Secondary accident insurance coverage.

VOLUNTEER POWER

As a non-profit organization, AYSO runs on volunteer power. This means registered volunteers run the local AYSO programs all over the country. Additionally, our National Board of Directors, National President, as well as every coach, referee, and Regional Commissioner is a volunteer.

AYSO PHILOSOPHIES

  • EVERYONE PLAYSⓇ

    AYSO’s goal is for kids and adults to play soccer, so we mandate that every player on every team must play at least 50 percent of every game.

  • BALANCED TEAMS

    Each year we form new teams as evenly balanced as possible, providing a stronger learning experience for teams as they play teams comprised of similar abilities. It also allows for each player to experience playing with a wide variety of teammates of different skill levels.

  • OPEN REGISTRATION

    If you want to play soccer, AYSO welcomes you and allows all youth and adults to register and play.

  • POSITIVE COACHING

    A coach can be one of the most influential people in a player’s life, so AYSO requires they create a positive experience for every player in AYSO. Additionally, encouraging player’s effort leads to greater enjoyment, improved skills and stronger motivation in players.

  • GOOD SPORTSMANSHIP

    We strive to create a positive environment based on mutual respect rather than a win-at-all-costs attitude, and our programs are designed to instill good sportsmanship in every facet of AYSO.

  • PLAYER DEVELOPMENT

    All players should be able to develop their soccer skills and knowledge to the best of their abilities, both individually and as members of a team, to maximize their enjoyment of the game.
