certified.
They must be performing duties as laid out in a position

They must act within the scope of AYSOs Policies,
Procedures, and Guidelines.
AYSO and Its Mission
The American Youth
Soccer Organization develops and delivers quality youth soccer programs which
promote a fun, family environment based on our five
philosophies:
Everyone Plays; Our goal is for kids to play soccer so we mandate that every player on every team must play at least half of every game.
Balanced Teams; We require every region at the start of each season to set up teams as evenly balanced as possible. Its more fun when teams are of equal ability.
Positive Coaching; This builds a positive team spirit. We train and encourage our coaches to make the extra effort to understand and offer positive help to our players, rather than negative criticism.
Open Registration; Our programs are open to all children ages 5 - 18 who want to register and play soccer. Interest and enthusiasm are the only requirements for playing.
Good Sportsmanship ; We create a positive environment based on mutual respect, rather than a win-at-all-costs attitude. All of our programs are designed to instill good sportsmanship in every facet of AYSO.
