ABOUT AYSO

Since 1964

The American Youth Soccer Organization is the oldest national youth soccer program in the United States and a nonprofit. Our mission is to develop and deliver quality youth soccer programs throughout the country which promote a fun, family-friendly environment built on the foundation of our Six Philosophies.

EVERYONE PLAYS®

Our goal is for kids 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 players.

POSITIVE COACHING

Positive instruction & encouragement teaches kids to love the game and leads to better-skilled and better-motivated players.

GOOD SPORTSMANSHIP

We strive to create a safe, fair, fun and positive environment based on mutual respect and good sportsmanship.

OPEN REGISTRATION

Our program is open to all children who want to register and play soccer. Interest and enthusiasm are the only criteria for playing.

PLAYER DEVELOPMENT

We believe that all players should be able to develop their soccer skills and knowledge to the best of their abilities to maximize their enjoyment of the game.
