Depending on division size, teams in 10U-14U may interlock under the Area 1C Spring Cup program.

Volunteer Requirements

Teams are formed based on qualified volunteers. Each team needs:

No experience? No problem! AYSO provides all required training—and volunteering is a great way to stay involved and support our community.

Team Formation

Each team will be formed using the AYSO "balanced teams" philosophy. We will only begin to form teams when we have qualified volunteers for each team. Please consider volunteering to coach or ref to guarantee a spot. We will have opportunities for training leading up to the start of the season so please sign up to volunteer and we will get you all of the training and certification you need!
