About Us
AYSO's Vision is to
provide world class youth soccer programs that enrich children’s lives. AYSO's Mission is to develop and deliver quality youth soccer programs which promote a fun, family environment
based on AYSO's Six Philosophies: AYSO's philosophies are living
tenets that separate it from other sports organizations. They are Everyone Plays®, Balanced Teams, Open Registration,
Positive Coaching, Good Sportsmanship and Player Development. Our
program's goal is for kids to play soccer so we mandate that every player on every team must play at least 50% of every game.
It’s no fun to spend the game on the bench…and that’s no way to learn soccer! Each year we form new teams as evenly balanced as possible because it’s more fun and a better
learning experience when teams of similar ability play. It allows for each player to gain the experience of a wide variety
of teammates of different skill levels. 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. There are no elimination try-outs and nobody gets cut. Encouragement of player effort provides for greater enjoyment for the players and leads to better-skilled and better-motivated
players. A coach can be one of the most influential people in a child’s life, so AYSO requires they create a positive
experience for every boy and girl. 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. 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. |
