At AYSO, we understand that parents want the best for their children. That’s why we rely on the hard work and dedication of volunteers to ensure that every child has a great experience. Our organization is run by volunteers, including coaches, referees and administrators. With over 125,000 volunteers from all walks of life, your child will get the attention and guidance they need to succeed. For parents who may not have much experience with soccer, we offer special training courses that will quickly get you up to speed. In just a few short hours, you can become a qualified introductory-level coach or referee. This way, you can feel confident that your child is receiving the best possible experience with AYSO.
