The AYSO Philosophy:

Everyone Plays - Every child receives equal playing time, regardless of skill, and plays a minimum of half of each game, and generally much more.

Open Registration - We use sign-ups not tryouts. Our programs are open to all children between the ages of 4 1/2 and 18, attending school within our three-village community. As long as there s space on a team, every child who signs up will play. Here are the age guidelines used by our region.

Balanced Teams - We organize all teams to be as evenly balanced as possible. We do not emphasize winning, nor do we keep standings. We emphasize fun and learning.

Positive Coaching - We build soccer skills and self-esteem through encouragement and teaching.

Good Sportsmanship - Our programs promote positive behavior on field and sidelines. We teach lessons for life, as well as soccer.
