Parent Participation

Did you know AYSO regions are 100% run by volunteers?

Parent/family participation in running our league creates a community working together! We request each family to volunteer for 4 hours over the season per player. This is less than 30 minutes per week. Some of you choose to volunteer much more and we encourage everyone to do what they can to help.

AYSO (and most leagues) require volunteer participation to allow us to offer a better experience for kids and families, but also allows us to keep the costs low while providing a high-quality soccer program. It takes a lot of effort to run a soccer league and with everyone putting a few hours in per season, the downtown San Jose runs smoothly.

The other benefit is FREE training and many mentors to ask questions both within our region and other local regions.

Volunteering with the AYSO is a great opportunity to learn something new and get new or enhance skills in organization, leadership and communication.

It is a great opportunity to show your involvement in your children's lives and help other families.

You will meet other families in the community and build a network of friends and neighbors.

There is something for everyone, so pick a role that is challenging and fun!!!
