Welcome to Region 1196.
Please review our website learn about AYSO both nationally and in our community.
Region 1196 is an all-volunteer organization. As you register for the season you will be asked to perform a volunteer role in support of your children. Please think about what you can do to strengthen our organization!
AYSO's Six philosophies separate us from the pack:
Everyone Plays, Balanced Teams, Open Registration, Positive Coaching,
Good Sportsmanship, and Player Development!
Everyone Plays
Our program's goal is for kids to play soccer-so we mandate that every player on every team must play at least half of every game.It's no fun to spend the game on the bench and that's no way to learn soccer!
Balanced Teams
Each year we form new teams as evenly balanced as possible-because it is fair and more fun when teams of equal ability play.
Open Registration
Our program is open to all children between 4 and 19 years of age who want to register and play soccer. Interest and enthusiasm are the only criteria for playing.There are no Try-outs and No One gets cut!
Positive Coaching
Encouragement of player effort provides for greater enjoyment by the players and ultimately leads to better-skilled and better-motivated players.
