AYSO Philosophy

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 three quarters of every game

Balanced Teams:
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 4-1/2 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.

Player Development:
We believe that 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, in order to maximize their enjoyment of the game.
