Programs Offered

4U Playground
AYSO Playground Soccer is designed for our youngest players. This special program features Activity Leaders, certified through the AYSO National Coaching Program, who understand the needs and capabilities of this age group and are sensitive to the needs and bonding experience of the parent. Our 4U Playground division is mixed gendered.

5U Schoolyard
In AYSO Schoolyard players get to play soccer in an age-specific program. Each team is comprised of players and a parent/adult for each on the field. The children learn soccer skills like kicking, dribbling in a low-pressure setting. Schoolyard us about gradually exposing children to soccer as a game without the pressure to win.

6U-14U Soccer
The AYSO Core program is another name for AYSO’s primary program, which is home to a majority of our players and spans from 6U to 14U divisions. These teams are by gender.
