    U10 Field Set-up Instructions:

  • Please arrive for set-up at least 45 minutes in advance of your game.
  • The storage closet by the concession stand will be open by 7:00am every Saturday. There you will find paint liners with green paint, corner flags and a plastic bin labeled "U10" and either field 3A or 3B. The bin contains 2 nets, 6 stakes, 15 bungee straps and a mallet. We also place 2 trash cans out on Field 3. Be sure they have a plastic liner in them.
  • Before putting the goals in place, please line the fields with green paint. Please paint each line twice- once from each direction. This ensures visibility from all angles, and that the lines will still be visible in order to paint them the following week.
  • The goals are locked to the wall at the south-west corner of Field 3. The combination to the lock is 4184. When installing the nets, be sure they are in the correct position so that the field number signs are on the outside of the net and correctly oriented to read. Also, do not wrap the net around the front of the top or side bars; just install it into the net clips at the rear of those bars. Where the clips are broken, please use the velcro straps attached to the net. Use the bungee straps for the smaller bars that are on the bottom sides and rear of the goals.
  • Place 3 stakes along the rear bottom crossbar. If you need more velcro straps for the front of the goal, please notify Marc Dart who will have spares to install. Leave the plastic bin behind one of the goals with the mallet in it for tear-down at the end of the day. Install your corner flags and have a great game!


    U10 Field Tear-Down Instructions:

  • Please have everyone search the field for trash and throw it away. We need to leave the fields clean of all items.
  • The plastic bin for the 2 nets, 6 stakes, 15 bungees and mallet should be located behind one of your goals. Please be sure all items get put back into this bin.
  • Flip the wheels of the goal down and roll them to the south-west corner block wall of Field 3. (See photos) There you will see a chain padlocked to the cyclone fence on top of this block wall. Please nest the goals, faced toward the wall, with the chain wrapped around the right uprights of the goal. It is important to have them in this position so that they are not sitting on any sprinkler heads in the grass.
  • Take the corner flags and the bin of nets and supplies to the storage closet located next to the concession stand and place inside.
  • There are also 2 plastic trash cans on Field 3 that need to be emptied and put away in this closet. Please remove the trash bag, tie the top, and leave the bag by one of the city's permanent trash cans. They will pick it up in the morning. Again, please have everyone scour the fields for trash or any other items left on the field, and be sure they are put away, or thrown away.

Changes for 2017

Changes for 2017

Player Development Initiatives (PDI's)

The new U.S. Soccer Player Development Initiatives (PDI’s) mandate small sided play for all youth soccer programs up to U12.  These PDI’s will apply to all youth soccer programs that are members of U.S. Soccer, including most youth soccer club programs.  Minor adjustments to the AYSO rules are necessary to align with U.S. Soccer for the U5 to U8 age groups to have 4v4 play in place of 3v3 and 5v5.  Otherwise, the AYSO Rules and Regulations are already mostly in-alignment with the PDI’s, and in fact, already offered more player development opportunities now being recognized by U.S. Soccer.

What are the biggest changes to the rules in AYSO and youth soccer?
The biggest changes are in the U10 division. The rule changes mandated by U.S. Soccer are to encourage passing the ball on the ground, especially from the goalkeeper up through the team.  There will be a new line on the field between the half line and the top of the penalty area.    These are called "build-out” lines.  For more specific information on the build-out lines and how they are used, please see U.S. Soccer’s website: US Soccer PDI or the US Soccer PDI presentation at the link below.

Some Regions that do not already use small sided play will also have to change field sizes and goal sizes.  Regions will be permitted to implement the field and goal changes gradually in order to conform to the US Soccer PDI mandate.

What are the new changes to the player age cutoff dates?
FIFA and other governing bodies in soccer use the calendar year for determining the age for player registration as opposed to most youth soccer organizations that have used the “school year” to form teams.  That practice kept most kids in a given grade in the same age group.  U.S. Soccer PDI’s now require conformity with FIFA practice.  For membership year 2017, AYSO will be going to calendar year age determination.

The following factors in using the calendar year that are different from AYSO’s past practice are:

  • The age of the player at the “end of competition” determines the age group division for that player.  In our case, that means December 31 for that membership year.
  • Players in a given age group division will now be at the age of that group or under leading to a change in terminology for age group divisions.   For instance, age groups will now be referred to as 6U (age 6 and under), 8U, 10U, 12U, etc.
  • See the Registration Page to determine which age division a child will play in. 
  • Because of the changes to the age cutoff, some players will have to move up to the next division even though they only played one season in U8 or U10, for example.  Some players who played in the U5 division last season will skip the 6U division and move directly to the 8U division.

When do the rules go into effect?
Fall of 2017 for the rules of play, including the small sided games and the new age determination cutoff.  For goal equipment and field sizes, U.S. Soccer acknowledges that goal sizes and field sizes will change over time.

The build-out lines are to be used in 2017.  Fields that may not be painted with a new line may use flat cones, cones, flags or other means to denote the line.
