AYSO PHILOSOPHY

VISION STATEMENT: To provide world class yourh soccer programs that enrich children's lives.

MISSION STATEMENT: To develop and deliver quality youth soccer programs which promote a fun, family environment based on the AYSO philosophies:

Everyone Plays - Every player on every team must play at least half of every game.

Balanced Teams - Each year new teams are as evenly balanced as possible which makes it more fun to play.

Open Registration - All children between the ages of 4 1/2 and 14 are welcome to register. Interest and enthusiasm are the only criteria to play.

Positive Coaching - Encouragement of player effort provides for greater enjoyment by the players and ultimately leads to better-skilled and better-motivated players.

Good Sportsmanship - We strive to create a positive environment base on mutual respect rather than a win at all costs attitude. Our program is designed to instill good sportsmanship in every facet of AYSO.

Player Development - We believe that all players should be able to develop their soccer skills and knowledge to the best of their abilities, both individually and as members of a team, in order to maximize their enjoyment of the game.
