The online pre-registration system, e-AYSO, is set up by AYSO National, and allows you to pre-register your children online for Region 88. This dramatically speeds up the Walk-Up Registration process, and will help alleviate mistakes found in the handwritten forms.
There is 2-step process to allow your child to play in the upcoming season..
1) Pre-registration is sort of like a waiting list for the next upcoming season. It gets you in the online system. Every player must pre-register online using the e-AYSO website.
2) Registration is the official acceptance to the upcoming season. This is usually completed at the walk-up registration (or late registration process) where you turn in your printed pre-registration forms and pay the season fees.
If you pre-registered correctly, we wiil have your information, If you are not sure, go to the e-AYSO website, log-in with your user-name and password, click on "Player" and you will see your child's name. If you do not see your child's name, your pre-regisatration is not complete, and you need to make sure you pre-register correctly.

Although practices may vary, expect your child to practice at the following teams.
NOTE: In the Under-6 and Under-8 divisions, practices usually begin at 4:30 pm. Also, a parent (not a brother or sister) is required to stay at practice, so if you can not stay with your child at this times, you may want to reconsider registering this year.

Yes, if they are in the same division. Sometimes, a parent may decide that it is not a good idea for their children to play together, which will also be honored whenever possible. Please e-mail the Registrar if you would like to request these arrangemenst.
NO. Because teams are already carefully balanced out, except for extra-ordinary and rare circumstance..extremely rare, players cannot move to another team. Although it may seem simple, changing players to accommodate music practice, girl scouts, church or any other extra-curricular activity or sport, is not a reason we can move players. Please remember that we are working with 3500 players, and each request has a impact on many families and teams. Please contact the Division Coordinator with any questions or concerns.
NO. To make teams as balanced as possible, Region 88 builds teams through a balanced draft. Only exception is in the Under 5 and 6 divisions, when reasonable.
NO. To keep teams balanced, requests for a particular coach can not be honored. Only exception is in the Under 5 and 6 divisions, when reasonable.
Our region wants to make sure to that every child who wants to play... can. Please direct this situation directly to the Registrar.
In the rare case where the player falls in Under-14 division, but will be attending high school, Region 88 strongly recommends that your child play up in the Under-16 Division. Any exceptions must be made directly to the Region Commissioner .
Why? CIF ("high school") rules do not allow a player to play on both a high school team and a AYSO or club team at the same time. The Under-16 division ends before the high school season starts so there is no conflict. However, in the Under-14 division, the high school season overlaps with the end of the Under-14 season and its playoffs. According to CIF rules, if a player makes the high school team, the player is not allowed to play on an AYSO team anymore, and the AYSO team will lose one of its players, and create an imbalance in the teams, and violating one of the AYSO tenants. For the player, violations of this rule could result in a forfeiture of high school games and cause a player to be ineligible for high school play.
This is specifically why the Under-16 and Under-19 season must end just as the high school season begins.
Besides the Under-14/high school rule stated above, Region 88 builds divisions by birth date as shown above. On very rare occasions, it may be acceptable to move a player to a different division based on special needs. Formal requests, however, must be made directly to the Region Commissioner .
The Fall Season, which is the AYSO regular season, runs between September and November. Practices can start in August and playoffs may run into December. Region 88 Champions may play in January and February against other cities.
An All-Star and Winter Season runs in January and February and a Spring Season may run in April and May. Some teams even have tournament teams which play throughout the summer. These all have different costs. Sign-ups are at a different time than the Fall Season registration.
Yes, in divisions u10,u12,u14,u16 and u19, ALL NEW players must be evaluated. That also includes any player from a different region outside Region 88. These are not try-outs as every registered player will be placed on a team.
If you ar a new player, you will be notified of the locations of evaluations. These evaluations are usually held the Sunday prior and the Sunday after Father’s Day. Please check back on the website calendar during June and July.
