It is important that players attend practice. When you sign up to play AYSO soccer, you have agreed to attend practices regularly and help the coach build a team for the enjoyment of everyone. Practice is fun – it’s where players learn the skills, strategies, and teamwork necessary to play the game. Please let your player’s Coach know when your player will miss a practice or game.

Team practice dates and location are determined by each individual coach. The best way to have input into the location, date, and time of practices is to volunteer as a Coach.

Each player must have a soccer ball to use for home and practice. It’s a great idea to put your player’s name and phone number on his/her ball using permanent marker. For ball sizes see the equipment page.

Players MUST wear shin guards to practice or they will NOT practice. Also, just as with games, players shouldn’t wear wrist-watches, earrings, barrettes, metal bracelets or any other object that could injure the
player or others.

Parents – please don’t rely on the coach to baby-sit, he/she has a family and other obligations too. If you don’t stay at practice – make sure you drop your player off and pick them up ON TIME.
