5/10/2023: Greetings AYSO Parents!
We are excited to announce that our 2023-2024 competitive play programs are getting underway. We plan to offer boys and girls programs in 3 different age groups, however forming teams will depend on numbers as well as volunteer coaches. Please fill out this form (here) if your child is interested in participating in one of our competitive programs next school year. We will be offering a skills evaluation and parent meeting soon so please stay tuned for more information. Please contact our Competitive Program Coordinator, Brian Dolan (here) if you have any questions or if you are interested in coaching a team.

5^th/6^th Grade EXTRA

Indicate Interest (here)

EXTRA is a soccer program for players going into 5^th and 6^th grade who are looking to get more touches on the ball and playing against some more advanced competition than what they experience in the AYSO CORE program. All participants must enroll in CORE (the traditional Saturday morning games at Adams) to play EXTRA. If you participate in the EXTRA program, please realize that it is, well, extra soccer, meaning extra practice and extra games. For EXTRA families, Saturdays can get quite busy, so please think about your comfort level with committing to the program.

While we would love to have everyone who wants to play be able to, there are limitations in the size of rosters for EXTRA teams. The skills evaluation will help coaches and coordinators get a feel for the abilities of the athletes to help determine if EXTRA is appropriate for your athlete. If we have enough interest at a particular age, we may be able to recruit more coaches and form more teams.

EXTRA Season, Travel, Uniforms, & Cost:

Our teams will play a 7-8 game fall season from early September until the end of October and a 7-8 game spring season from early April until the end of May. Teams will practice 1-2 times per week and could start in August. Games are on Saturday afternoons and some divisions may have an occasional Sunday afternoon game.
Teams will have 3-4 home games and 3-4 away games within the Mid-Southern Willamette Valley League’s upper division. Away game travel might be to areas such as Salem, Dallas, Jefferson, Keizer, Albany, Lebanon, Springfield, Eugene, Newport, Florence, Lincoln City, etc.
Players will receive 2 jerseys (navy and grey), navy shorts, and navy socks. If your child played in our Extra program during the 22/23 season, then you do not have to purchase a new uniform. The cost for the uniforms plus printing is $75.
The cost to participate on an EXTRA team is $150 for the year which includes Fall/Spring League (14-16 games), league membership, field use fee, and uniforms. Tournaments are an additional fee. This EXTRA fee is in addition to our core fee. If you do not need a uniform the cost is $75.

7^th/8^th Grade Select

Indicate Interest (here)

Select is a soccer program for players going into 7^th or 8^th grade who want a more competitive practice and game environment and who are willing to work hard to improve their skills and level of play. We highly recommend players also enroll in either our CORE (the traditional Saturday morning games at Adams) program or their middle school soccer program, but this is not required.

While we would love to have everyone who wants to play be able to, there are limitations in the size of rosters for Select teams. The skills evaluation will help coaches and coordinators get a feel for the abilities of the athletes to help determine if Select is appropriate for your athlete. If we have enough interest at a particular age, we may be able to recruit more coaches and form more teams.

Additional friendly matches or scrimmages may be set up as well as 1-2 tournaments throughout the year.
Teams will have 3-4 home games and 3-4 away games within the Mid-Southern Willamette Valley League’s upper division. Away game travel might be to areas such as Salem, Dallas, Jefferson, Keizer, Albany, Lebanon, Springfield, Eugene, Newport, Florence, Lincoln City, etc.
Players will receive 2 jerseys (navy and grey), navy shorts, and navy socks. If your child played in our Extra program during the 22/23 season, then you do not have to purchase a new uniform. The cost for the uniforms plus printing is $75.
