Registration FAQs

Q: We are new to AYSO/ASC - how do I sign up?

A: Everyone that wants to be involved with AYSO/ASC has to create an account in the AYSO Region 204 portal. You can set up a family account if you have multiple children playing and/or if you are a parent coach, or other type of volunteer. If you have registered your child in a Sports Connect portal for a different sports league, you will need to create a new account here in the AYSO Region 204 portal, with a new and different username. (TBC)

Q: Should I volunteer or coach?

A: Yes!! There are many volunteer roles that need to be filled each year. It takes the work of many to make each soccer season happen. We are always looking for more help, especially coaches. No prior experience is necessary; we provide all the training you will need.

Q: What are these divisions all about? What division would my child be in?

A: Check out our division eligibility chart to see what division your child will play in. The division is based on your childs’ birth-year, NOT their grade. The decision to group the players by calendar year, rather than school year, has been made at the National AYSO level and unfortunately local AYSO teams, such as ours, do not have the ability to make exceptions.

If you would like to get involved in either Armonk Soccer Club or AYSO at the National level please let us know!

Q: How much does each program cost?
A: With our integrated website and registration portal, create an account and you can find out easily by logging in. Our programs are affordably priced. The cost of the Travel program will vary based on the time of registration (early bird, regular, late). Full registration scholarships for the Travel program are available via email inquiry (no questions asked). Multi-child discounts are available.

Q: What is included in AYSO Travel registration?
A: Included:

The full year Fall/Spring Core program includes 16 weeks of games/practices, instruction from certified volunteer parent coaches, and unlimited fun!
The actual number of games may vary due to weather, division size, coach availability, or other factors. No refunds are available for these factors.

Player FAQs

Q: The Fall season is approaching. When will I find out what team my child is on?

A: Your coach will be contacting you within a few weeks of the start of the season to introduce him or herself. If you have not heard from your coach toward the end of August, PLEASE BE PATIENT. He or she may be on vacation. If you still have questions you may contact your Division Administrator. Please do not contact the Region Commissioner regarding team assignments.

Q: Can my child move to another team?

A: Because teams are already carefully balanced out, except for extraordinary and rare circumstances, players cannot move to another team. Although it may seem simple, changing players to accommodate scheduling conflicts is a lot of work. Please remember that we are working with around 400 players in the program, and each request has an impact on many families and teams. Please contact the Division Administrator with any questions or concerns.

Q: Where are games and practices?

A: Check out our Field map for locations of our game field.

Q: How do I get a uniform for my child?
A: As part of the registration process, you will fill in the uniform sizing information. Uniforms will be distributed at the first practice of the Fall season by your coach. If you cannot make it to the first practice, let your coach know and make alternative plans to meet.

Q: My child suddenly doesn't like soccer - can we get a refund?

A: Please refer to our Refund Policy regarding refunds. If, after the initial trial period of 2 weeks in the Fall, you have specific concerns with a coach or other player(s) in your child's team or division, please let your Division Coordinator know as soon as possible and they will try to help. In all cases, remember this is a community-based soccer club led by volunteers and we will do our best to help you and your child feel more comfortable finishing out the season.
