Enrollment is first-come, first-served. We try to accommodate all players, but enrollment may be limited by the availability of volunteer coaches. Players may be placed on a waitlist until volunteer coaches become available. Since many divisions fill up fast, register early to avoid higher registration fees and reduce the possibility of being placed on the waitlist.
AYSO and U.S. Soccer have shifted to a school-year (August 1st) age grouping system for teams (previous to this year, AYSO used birth-year grouping). The registration system automatically places players in the correct division. See below for additional information.
IMPORTANT NOTES
Teammate requests - AYSO strives to form ‘balanced’ teams to provide a more robust learning experience for teams as they play teams comprised of similar abilities. Hillsborough AYSO is not able to consider teammate or coach requests when forming teams. Hillsborough AYSO does not take teammate or coach requests. The only way to guarantee your child is placed on a team with another player is to volunteer to coach or referee and pair up with another volunteer coach or referee. Each team is allowed three volunteers: coach, assistant coach, and referee. All coaching/referee pairings are subject to review to ensure we can meet the team balancing objective.
AYSO EPIC - The mission of the AYSO EPIC Program is to provide a quality soccer experience for individuals whose unique physical or mental abilities make it difficult to participate on mainstream soccer teams successfully. Successful participation is defined by the player's enjoyment and the safety of all team members.
