Volunteer Power

AYSO runs on volunteer power. Nearly 150,000 registered volunteers run the local AYSO programs all over the country. Every coach, referee, Regional Commissioner – the list goes on – is a volunteer. Even the National Board of Directors and National President are AYSO volunteers. If it wasn’t for the thousands of volunteers throughout the U.S. donating their time every season, AYSO wouldn’t be as successful and far-reaching as it is today. 

In the 4 short years since our region was created we have grown to almost 500 players. The time and effort required to run our region has grown just as our player numbers have. Because of the high demand for volunteer help in our region we have implemented a volunteer agreement. Every family must contribute in some way, this could be coming out to help setup fields once a month to coaching or referring and much more. We have a spot for everyone. We understand that everyone has busy lives so we are not asking for each person to be a board member or coach. What we are asking is that each family contribute to the success of our AYSO community in some way.
