How do I request a refund?

• All refund requests must be in writing.
• Once a player is placed on a team no refunds can be given. 
• Refunds are division fee only, the AYSO $25 membership/insurance fee is non-refundable.
• Please email our Regional Commissioner or Regional Register regarding a refund.

What equipment will my child need?

• Please visit the Divisions tab under Parent Information. Then select the proper division for a list of necessary equipment for that age group.
• Our AYSO teams play games in uniforms supplied by the region which are included in the registration fee. Regions also provide field equipment, such as goals, nets, and flags.

Can my player play in an older division?

• The region will consider this on a case-by-case basis. Please email your request to the Regional Commissioner and the board will decide based on the player's evaluation. Please understand that all decisions are made in the best interest of the player and will be final.
  

Can my player be on the same team as their friend?

• One of AYSO core values is to have balanced teams. Each year we form new teams as evenly balanced as possible because it's more fun and a better learning experience when teams of similar ability play. It allows for each player to gain the experience of a wide variety of teammates of different skill levels. 

Can I request my coach?

• In order to help balance teams, the only coach requests that we take is to match the coach with their child.

When do I get contacted by my coach?

• Team rosters will be created after evaluations are complete. Coaches will receive their team roster at the coaches meeting and will contact their players prior to practice starting.

I'm on the waitlist, will my child get to play?  What can I do to make sure they get off the waitlist and onto a team??

• Volunteer!!! We are an organization run entirely by volunteers. That means we need you, parents, to step up and be our coaches and referees. We open up more teams as we get coaches and referees to cover those teams. If you are willing to be a coach or referee so that we can open up more teams and get your child off the waitlist and onto the roster, fill out a volunteer application and let us know you are ready to step up by emailing us at [email protected]. No previous soccer experience is required. We have coach and referee trainers ready to help you out!
