AYSO Philosophy
EVERYONE PLAYS
We want kids to play soccer - so all players get equal playing time regardless of ability. Each child is guaranteed to play at least half of every game.
BALANCED TEAMS
At the start of each season we set up teams as evenly as possible. It's more fun when teams are of equal ability.
OPEN REGISTRATION
Our programs are open to all children who meet the age guidelines. Interest and enthusiasm are the only requirements for playing.
POSITIVE COACHING
We train and encourage our coaches to make the extra effort to understand and offer positive help to our players, rather than use negative criticism. This approach builds a positive team spirit.
GOOD SPORTSMANSHIP
We create a positive environment based upon mutual respect, rather than a win-at-all-costs attitude. All of our programs are designed to instill good sportsmanship in our kids and our volunteers.
