Every Family Helps Build the Experience

AYSO is 100% volunteer-powered. Every practice, game, field setup, concession stand, referee assignment, and team celebration happens because families step forward to help. Our players deserve a safe, organized, and positive soccer experience — and that only happens when everyone contributes.

To support our region and reduce burnout on a small group of volunteers, each family is asked to complete four (4) volunteer hours for every registered player during the soccer year.

Volunteer hours may be completed:

• Preseason — field prep, registration events, coach support, equipment distribution
• During the season — coaching, refereeing, team support, concessions, field setup
• Postseason — field cleanup, tournament help, equipment collection, celebrations

Why Your Participation Matters

Our region is strongest when parents participate together. Volunteering:

• Creates a safer environment for players
• Keeps registration costs lower
• Builds stronger teams and friendships
• Teaches kids leadership and community responsibility
• Ensures no single family carries the workload alone

Most volunteer roles require only a few hours to fulfill and no prior experience.

You do not need soccer experience to help.
We will provide guidance, training, and support.
