AYSO Core Program

AYSO Core Program


Our core program is the foundation for all the fun, excitement and learning that happens on the fields. AYSO is best known for our core program – it’s where the large majority of kids fall in love with soccer and make memories that will last a lifetime.  In AYSO Core there are no tryouts, no mandatory training sessions, no forced travel expenses, just the opportunity for children to learn and play soccer in a healthy and fun environment.

There are six core values – or what we call AYSO’s Six Philosophies – that are the foundation of our core program, and all others: Everyone Plays, Balanced Teams, Open Registration, Positive Coaching, Good Sportsmanship and Player Development. These are the essence of AYSO and it all starts with Everyone Plays.  Learn more about AYSO’s Six Philosophies here.

Here in AYSO Core, Everyone Plays means that no child spends their soccer experience sitting on the bench. Here in AYSO Region 274 every child is required to play at least three quarters of a game.  All skill levels get the opportunity to make their mark on the game.

In addition, teams are put together in a way that makes playing soccer about the experience, not wins or losses. It’s not about blowing out another team with an unbelievable score; it’s about sportsmanship and learning to be the best possible team mate and opponent. Developing players is what we’re about, because soccer skills and life skills go hand in hand. AYSO’s main purpose is to get kids on the field, provide them with good coaches, and teach them to play soccer.
