    If you are a returning volunteer, please make sure your first and last name and date of birth are EXACTLY the same as you entered in eAYSO in previous years. This will ensure that the system can match to your original account, use the same AYSO ID, and retrieve any certifications.

    The registration fee is $165 per player for 6U - 14U, $70 for Playground, and $145 for 16U and 18U/19U. A $10 sibling discount will be applied for each additional player registered. An additional $25.00 AYSO National registration fee will be added to your order at checkout.

    Credit card payments can be made on-line. 

In What Division Will My Child Be Placed?

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 below, which follows U.S. Soccer school-year guidelines. 

Reference: https://ayso.org/age-determination/

At registration, players will automatically be eligible for the appropriate division. The following chart is provided for your reference.
