Volunteering

AYSO is a volunteer-run organization. Coaches, referees and administrators are volunteers. Over 125,000 parents, neighbors, relatives and friends lend their time and talents so that each child gets a terrific AYSO experience. AYSO has developed special training that helps parents who may have little or no soccer experience quickly gain the age-appropriate knowledge and skills they need to be effective coaches and referees. It only takes a few hours to become qualified as an introductory-level coach or referee.

If you are interested in signing up as a Coach, Referee, 8U official, Team Manager, Field Prep Lead, or Board Member, you can select this when you register your player. Click here to see more information on the team roles by age group. See the Background Checks and Registration Perks sections below for more detail. If you have any questions, please email [email protected]

Registration Perks

All coaches, referees, 8U officials, and team managers are eligible for a free buddy picture with your player on Team Picture Day.

IMPORTANT: To be eligible for the above, you must have also completed all required training and certifications (online and/or in-person as needed) and have signed up for the appropriate role prior to the start of the current season. For coaches, this includes the age-appropriate coaching certification. Click in the How to Volunteer section of the website to find a list of volunteer requirements and directions on how to access/complete them.

Background Checks

The safety of the players is a primary concern. Because of that, the following volunteer roles that involve close proximity to players and/or access to personal information require background checks AND fingerprinting to be performed when signing up to volunteer for that role:

Head Coach
Referee
U8 Official
Assistant Coach
Team Manager
Board Member

The background check is performed separately by an AYSO National vetted vendor as part of the registration process. Fingerprinting is only required once for any AYSO-affiliated program. If you had been fingerprinted in a prior season for any AYSO-affiliated program, it is not required again.
