Volunteer Info

AYSO 137 is an all volunteer organization. Absolutely no one is paid. We would like to thank everyone who has stepped up and volunteered, as a Coach, Referee, Team Parent or any other capacity. We cannot function without you. We hope you continue to step forward and volunteer your valuable time for your child and all of the other children in the community. Please contact us for details on how you can help our soccer community. Thank you once again from all in Region 137!

Volunteer Membership Program

The Volunteer Membership Program was voted on by the AYSO National Board of Directors in the fall of 2017 and will go into effect in MY2019. In keeping with our heritage of being a leader in child safety and to maintain safety as our highest priority, this program upgrades our background checks to what is known as “Level 2”, which is a deeper check. This upgrade has increased the costs of our background checks; to cover the costs of the program, the Volunteer Membership fee is $25 per volunteer. One of the benefits of this membership program is that AYSOU training and downloadable eBooks are now included at no additional cost.

This increase in volunteer screening is consistent with the trend in youth sports and other activities in general; it is not unique to AYSO.

Volunteers in our Region will be reimbursed this $25 once they have completed their age appropriate certifications and bring in their receipt of payment.

Board Positions Available

Your local AYSO region needs your help! As a youth sports organization that operates with 100% volunteers, we are always looking for people to help run our region. Like all community organizations, we depend on everyone pitching in to do their part in providing your child with the best sports experience they can have during the season. These efforts wouldn't be possible without the involvement of our volunteers and board members. As a board member, your role will help shape the soccer experience not only for your child, but all of the kids who play soccer in our region and for seasons to come. If you are interested, please inquire with our regional commissioner, Nicole Thornton, by sending her an email to [email protected] . Thank you.
