Spring 2020 Select Tryouts The Palo Alto AYSO "Select" soccer program will be holding tryouts for the Spring program beginning in late October into early November. The Select program allows for experienced players and coaches to participate in a more competitive format including more tournament opportunities. Practices typically begin in early February and the season runs to the end of May. AYSO Age Division guide: Please note that age divisions are organized by birth year, not school grade, nor age that your child is as of September 1. Therefore, please review the following Division/age charts before you request a change:
The AYSO Philosophy
Blue Sombrero Blue Sombrero help line for parents: 866.264.2048 AYSOU Login Credentials - Volunteers will use their Blue Sombrero Username and Password to log into AYSOU. If this is working on Blue Sombrero, but not working on AYSOU, the volunteer will need to login in to Blue Sombrero, click on their volunteer details, and then click update. Additional Volunteer Users - users volunteering outside of the registration system will volunteer his/herself, or add a new user to volunteer. If the volunteer now becomes an additional user, he/she will want to accept the invite to create a Username/Password on Blue Sombrero to get them access to AYSOU. Youth Volunteers do not have to accept this additional user invite to move forward. AYSOU Certifications - Certifications will port over from eAYSO once the user volunteers, based on the system recognizing the volunteer ID. If the certifications do not port over, there is a mismatch in the ID. | Air Quality Information In response to recent years' problems with California wildfires leading to health related Air Quality concerns, Region 26 has adopted a safety policy this year to notify teams on practice and game days if the Air Quality is deemed unsafe for high exertion activities (AQI over 100). AYSO needs volunteers! Coaches, referees, and in many other areas at all age divisions needed! Please consider what you can help with in filling out the volunteer portion of the application. We provide training, equipment, exercise, and a great supportive community not to mention kids who love learning from parents under the AYSO philosophy where everyone plays. Coaching volunteers will be contacted over the summer and be given preference on days and times for practices. If you have questions about volunteer roles, please contact us.
Core or Recreational is our regular recreational & instructional program and has open registration - there are no tryouts to place on a team. VIP is for those whose disabilities make it difficult for them to participate on mainstream teams.
