Registration Age Breakdown



Registration Age Breakdown

AYSO uses a school-year age matrix with an August 1 cutoff to determine player divisions, aligning with U.S. Soccer and other major youth soccer organizations. Under this model, a player’s division is based on their age during the school-year timeframe of August 1 through July 31.
For Example: A player who is 5 years old on August 1 will play in the 6U division for that Fall season.

This age group cutoff aligns soccer age groups with school-year peers, helping more players participate and stay in the game with their classmates and friends.To help determine the appropriate division for your child, please refer to the age chart above, which follows U.S. Soccer school-year guidelines. For more information about age group formation, click here to be redirected to the U.S. Soccer website.

FRIEND REQUESTS ARE NOT PERMITTED

Per AYSO guidelines Friend Requests are not permitted for standard Core/Competitive play. All players will be randomly placed on teams through our registration portal. 

Waitlist Information

The waitlist is usually turned on after the regular registration deadline or if the maximum number (cut off number) has been reached prior to the last day of registration.

  • We utilize the waitlist as a "pause button" to determine if we can make more teams or to "fill in" for dropped players.
  • Moving off of the waitlist may take a few weeks and some patience, but you will be contacted via email if your player has been "activated" from the waitlist.
  • Once you are activated from the waitlist, you have 48 hours to pay to get your child on the team at that point.
  • No player that registers is guaranteed to play, as this is ALWAYS based on the number of VOLUNTEER coaches that are available for your child's division.
  • It's possible that a player can jump off of the waitlist if a parent of a waitlisted player volunteers to be a HEAD coach for the division where coaches are still needed. Please contact us if interested. 
  • Players are put back on the waitlist in a backwards chronological order to instill fairness for our process, if we run out of volunteer coaches.
