Volunteer for AYSO


Help to make AYSO run for all our kids!

AYSO is a volunteer driven organization and although not everyone may want to help and be a coach, there are many ways for everyone to help serve our kids and make great soccer experiences happen.  

For Coaching, Assistant Coaching, and Referee roles,  the journey begins by signing up to volunteer in SportsConnect where you register your child.  You may be the primary parent account used to sign up your player(s) or an associated account. Either way, you will click on the "Volunteer" section in the left hand menu and select a volunteer role.  

Please fill in the volunteer form completely and when you application has been successfully submitted and processed, you will be enabled with access to training materials through eTrainU.    Please reference the Volunteer Training Guide  to learn how to use eTrainU for both online and sign-up for in-Person training. 

Not sure yet about a volunteer role? 

We understand, it's a big commitment to make while signing up your player for soccer, to also volunteer to coach.  If you have questions or are interested in finding out more about Coaching, Refereeing, or and other of support for AYSO, please fill in our Volunteer Interest form, and we'd be happy to talk.
