Description
  • AYSO is a nationwide non-profit organization that develops and delivers quality youth soccer programs in a fun, family environment based on AYSO's Five Philosophies:
    • Everyone Plays
      Our program's goal is for kids to play soccer - so we mandate that every player on every team must play at least half of every game.
    • Balanced Team
      Each year we form new teams as evenly balanced as possible because it is fair and more fun when teams of equal ability play.
    • Open Registration
      Our program is open to all children between 4 and 19 years of age who want to register and play soccer. Interest and enthusiasm are the only criteria for playing.
    • Positive Coaching
      Encouragement of player effort provides for greater enjoyment by the players and ultimately leads to better-skilled and better-motivated players.
    • Good Sportsmanship
      We strive to create a positive environment based on mutual respect rather than a win-at-all-costs attitude, and our program is designed to instill good sportsmanship in every facet of AYSO.



Notes

AYSO VIP Program provides a quality soccer experience for children - and adults - whose physical or mental disabilities make it difficult to successfully participate on mainstream teams. VIP teams may include those who are:

  • blind or visually impaired
  • amputees or conditions that impair mobility
  • mentally or emotionally challenged
  • autistic
  • have Down Syndrome
  • cerebral palsy
These kids are Very Important Players (VIP) in AYSO. We recognize that all children need to feel a sense of belonging and acceptance. The VIP program offers that acceptance and carries our philosophy of Everyone Plays� to new heights - giving everyone a chance to play.
