AYSO Philosophy

Everyone Plays
Our goal is for kids to play soccer. So we mandate that every player on every team must play at least half of every game.
Balanced Teams
We set up teams as evenly balanced as possible - because it's more fun when teams of equal ability play.
Positive Coaching
The way to make winning kids is by building them up, not down. We train and encourage our coaches to make the extra effort to understand and offer positive help to our players, rather than negative criticism.
Open Registration
Our programs are open to all children between the ages of 5 and 18 who want to register and play soccer. Interest and enthusiasm are the only criteria for playing.
Good Sportsmanship
We desire to create a positive environment based on mutual respect, rather than a win-at-all-costs attitude. All our programs must be designed to instill good sportsmanship in every facet of AYSO.


Refund Policy

A request to refund a player's registration fee must be made in writing and received before September 15 for all divisions except Under-6, October 1 for Under-6. Send the request to
Palo Alto AYSO
626 Wildwood Lane
Palo Alto CA 94303
or send email to our registrar and treasurer. Please include your kid's full name, who the check should be payable to, and your address.

It takes six weeks to issue a refund.

Refunds are issued late in the fall. For requests received after July 15, we will deduct a $15 administrative fee. Due to insurance requirements, no refunds are allowed once a player has attended any practices or games.
