Vision Statement
To provide world class youth soccer programs that enrich children’s lives.
Mission Statement
To develop and deliver quality youth soccer programs, which promote a fun, family environment based on our six philosophies:
Philosophy #1 - Everyone Plays®Our program's goal is for kids to play soccer so we mandate that every player on every team must play at least 50% of every game. It’s no fun to spend the game on the bench…and that’s no way to learn soccer!
Philosophy #2 - Balanced TeamsEach year we form new teams as evenly balanced as possible because it’s more fun and a better learning experience when teams of similar ability play. It allows for each player to gain the experience of a wide variety of teammates of different skill levels.
Philosophy #3 - Open RegistrationOur program is open to all children between 4 and 19 years of age who want to register and play soccer. Interest and enthusiasm are the only criteria for playing. There are no elimination try-outs and nobody gets cut.
Philosophy #4 - Positive CoachingEncouragement of player effort provides for greater enjoyment for the players and leads to better-skilled and better-motivated players. A coach can be one of the most influential people in a child’s life, so AYSO requires they create a positive experience for every boy and girl.
Philosophy #5 - Good SportsmanshipWe strive to create a positive environment based on mutual respect rather than a win-at-all-costs attitude, and our program is designed to instill good sportsmanship in every facet of AYSO.
Philosophy #6 - Player DevelopmentWe believe that all players should be able to develop their soccer skills and knowledge to the best of their abilities, both individually and as members of a team, in order to maximize their enjoyment of the game.
