Carson Valley AYSO Region 318

Think volunteering is not for your because your knowledge of soccer is minimal? Don't let that stop you! We need volunteers of all levels and skills to help us run this region! 

Positions Available:

  • Coaches
  • Assistant Coaches
  • Adult Referees
  • Youth Referees
  • Other Administrative Roles!

For more information about all of our volunteer opportunities, please email [email protected]

No experience necessary, AYSO provides training!
All volunteers have online training available to them through our national office. Training makes your job easier and creates a great soccer experience for our kids! Most training is available online, but some positions require field training as well. 

AYSO is an all volunteer organization. Every season, we need coaches, referees, schedulers, coordinators, and other fun positions to help make soccer a positive experience in the lives of the children of the Carson Valley!

Our season can only be successful with volunteers. If there aren't enough coaches, our kids can't play. Without referees, games get canceled. We simply cannot start a season without enough volunteers to run the games safely. There are many ways you can help, and it isn't as overwhelming as you may think.
