General Information
AYSO National has changed from a school year registration (age as of July 31st) to a birth year registration in order to align with other youth soccer programs.
Region 688 will have single-year Divisions for players born in 2018 (coed "Playground")
Two year Divisions for 2016-17 (6U); 2014-15 (8U), 2012-13 (10U), 2010-11 (12U), 2008-09 (14U), and 2003-2007 (16U/19U).

Each team has a registered and background checked VOLUNTEER coach that is or must become age-appropriate certified. Coach Certification is provided free of charge by AYSO. Some upper levels of Coaching Certification may involve travel and multiple day classes.
Playground is a six week program; VIP and all other teams participate up to a eight week season where fun and player development are the primary focus.
Teams in the 14U – 19U Divisions may experience interplay travel with neighboring regions during the Fall Season; all players in divisions Playground, VIP - 6U thru 12U play their matches at Discovery Park in Gilbert or Dobson High School in Mesa.
Registration for the Fall Season begins May 15 through July 31. New players to AYSO 688 will need to fax or mail a copy of birth certificate or proof of age record.
