Announcement: Davis AYSO has been able to comply with National AYSO guidelines in implementing games involving fewer players on the field. We fully implement national AYSO's recommended short-sided games for U6 (3v3), U10 (7v7), and U12 (9v9). We play 7v7 in U8, and hope to reach the recommended 5v5 in the future if we can solve the need for adequate game fields and coaches for 77 teams rather than the current 60 teams. See: Short-sided games are here!! (pdf) DAVIS AYSO is looking for new instructors! If you love kids and have a passion for teaching, or would like to develop some new skills, consider being a coach or referee instructor. Please email for more details.     Davis AYSO accepts sponsors who will contribute to our general fund or field development fund. We can provide visibility to your organization by associating you with an event or offering.

AYSO (American Youth Soccer Organization) is a nonprofit organization dedicated to the positive development of youth through the teaching and promotion of soccer. Founded in 1964 in Torrance California, AYSO operates soccer programs where young people can learn to develop a positive self-image, self-confidence and other positive character traits through their interest and participation in soccer. In 1964, AYSO started with about 125 players. Today that number has grown to nearly 600,000 players nationwide. Our phenomenal growth underscores AYSO's commitment to a healthy competitive atmosphere for young players and concern for the development of responsible individuals.   The six guiding principles of AYSO are:   Everyone Plays Balanced Teams Open Registration Positive Coaching Good Sportsmanship Player Development   Although AYSO is committed to competitive soccer, we are also concerned that the competition be healthy and positive. Most importantly, AYSO believes that soccer should be fun for everyone involved (including players, coaches, referees, and parents). After all, AYSO is a volunteer organization. We should all be having fun and enjoying ourselves!   Parents, check out the AYSO Parents Code for what we expect from you!   Note that we have a special program for kids with physical or mental challenges, called the VIP program. For more information on the rewarding program, see the AYSO VIP page.
