AYSO Membership Year 2024 (Fall24/Spring25)
For Membership Year 2024 (Fall24/Spring25) we welcome players with birth years 2013 through 2020.
If you’re new to AYSO, please read more about our program.
Our Teams
10U and 12U are travel teams and will have both practice and a game each week. 5U, 6U, 7U, 8U are non-travel groups and have one practice each week. These groups do not play a separate game each week.
You can learn more about player placement and the age bracket policies below in Age Brackets.

Payment
Players will complete the entire registration process each season. This is a change from the registration process prior to fall 2023. The registration fees are:
| Player registration | $45 | $40 |
| | | |
| Game jersey (if new one needed) | $15 | N/A |
Registration fees include the per season organization fee of $20(travel)/$15(non-travel) plus a once-per-membership year mandatory $25.00 "AYSO Membership Fee" for the National AYSO organization. The organization fee is inclusive of a $2.75 transaction fee. Travel players will also need to purchase a game jersey ($15) if they do not have one. Game jerseys from prior years can be reused.
Scholarships
Scholarships are available. Before you register, please contact the Registrar at [email protected]. Everybody that wants to play, plays!
Refund Policy
Up until the start of the season in question, a refund can be granted minus the $20.00 National Player Fee and the $2.75 Transaction Fee. Once a season has begun, after 1st practice, no refund is available unless there are extenuating circumstances, which will be considered on a case by case basis.
Age Brackets
AYSO players are grouped by the year of their birth - according to National Guidelines. Players in the same grade in school sometimes end up in different divisions. The registration system will automatically place your child into the appropriate age division. Players will remain in their age groups based on national AYSO guidelines.
For the current membership year (Fall24/Spring25),
Any exceptions are at the discretion of the Board. We will follow these guidelines for exceptions:
1. We will move up a player between travel teams (i.e., 10U to 12U) when their parent is coaching an older sibling's travel team. This is to minimize required travel.
2. We will move up a player when necessary to create a full team at the next age group.
We will allow players who have previously played on an older team to continue at that level (but no higher). For example, if a player previously played 12U, they may continue playing 12U.
