What's your sign?

You may have noticed a sign popping up on this web-site and on AYSO fields. It's our committment -- as parents, families, volunteers, and as an organization -- to providing the best possible environment to our children.

In recent months, the national media have focused on the negative, even violent behavior of players, coaches and parents involved in youth sports. In a proactive effort to counteract this trend of violence, AYSO has initiated a program called "Kids Zone."

We ask you to agree to the following when entering our facilities:

  • Kids are #1
  • Fun -- not winning -- is everything
  • Fans only cheer and coaches only coach
  • No yelling in anger
  • Respect the volunteer referees
  • No swearing
  • No smoking
  • Leave no trash behind
  • Set a proper example for our children

If you can agree to the above, we welcome you. If not, we ask that you please leave now. AYSO -- It's for the kids!
