Volunteering for Winters AYSO

AYSO only exists if you volunteer to help. The coaches are volunteers, the Board is entirely volunteer, the referees are all volunteers. Come volunteer, training is free (and often there’s free pizza too.)

At the end of each summer and the beginning of each season, the coach coordinator generally has to make hundreds of phone calls asking parents to step up and volunteer to coach, since without a coach, there are no teams. Likewise, the referee coordinator always needs adult referees, since without referees there are no games, and he is often scrambling to fill refereeing slots.

Please help. Volunteer. Email [email protected] and let us know how you would like help your child. Please provide contact information including a phone number if you wish us to call.
