What division will my child play in?
AYSO players are assigned to divisions based on their year of birth. See the below birth year / division chart:

When and where will practices and games take place?
Fields and practice times are determined in early August when field permits are secured. Practices and games will take place at schools and parks in Arcadia and Monrovia, typically at Arcadia City Hall, Dana Middle School, Foothills Middle School, and Clifton Middle School.

There are normally one practice a week for 6U - 8U teams and two practices a week for 10U and older.  Practices are usually scheduled at 5 PM - 6 PM, 6 PM - 7:30 PM, or 7:30 PM - 9 PM (older players only).  Games take place on Saturdays and some Sundays.

What soccer gear do I need?
Region 2 provides all players a full soccer uniform (jersey, shorts and socks). Players must have their own soccer shoes and shin guards.  Teams are provided soccer balls but it is highly recommended that players also have their own ball.

Can I register my child in Region 2 if I live outside of the area?
Yes!  Region 2 covers Arcadia, Bradbury, Duarte, Monrovia and Sierra Madre however you do not have to live in these cities in order to register or play in our region. Open Registration is one of AYSO's core philosophies.

What are new player assessments and when are they?
Creating Balanced Teams is a core AYSO Philosophy.  To achieve this objective, we assess every player on aspects such as ball skills, touch, size and soccer IQ. The more assessment data we have, the better we can balance the teams and have a better experience for everyone.

This year we are inviting all 10U - 14U players to attend assessments. Schoolyard, 6U – 8U players do not need to attend assessments. Players new to Region 2 or have not played recently are asked to attend an assessment.  Invitations are sent to registered players, however, if you do not receive an invitation, please attend one of the dates below.

Assessment Dates:
Sat, June 8th - Arcadia City Hall Field
Sat, June 22nd - Arcadia City Hall Field

Times for all dates are as follows:
8:00am - Girls 10U
9:00am - Boys 10U
10:00am - All 12U and 14U

Please wear soccer shoes, shin guards, and appropriate athletic attire.  Soccer balls are not necessary.

What is the EPIC program?
AYSO EPIC stands for Everyone Plays In our Community. The mission of the AYSO EPIC Program is to provide athletes with disabilities the additional support they need to fully participate in a quality soccer experience.  The ultimate goal of the AYSO EPIC Program is to provide a holistic AYSO experience for players, families, and volunteers, from team uniforms, to playing on a team, to cheering from the sidelines, for all participants. Registration for EPIC is open year-round.

Additional information regarding EPIC can be found on the AYSO National Epic website.  Please contact [email protected] with any other questions.

Who runs AYSO Region 2?
Region 2 is 100% volunteer run organization.  From our team parents, coaches, referees, board members all the way up to the Region Commissioner. The region survives through the generous donation of time and energy given by our volunteers.

PLEASE consider volunteering.

We always, always, always need more coaches, referees, and managers.  We provide all the training necessary (at no cost) and no prior experience is required. There are few things more rewarding then being a role model to today's youth in addition to the quality bond you will share with your own player.

You will have the opportunity to register your interest in volunteering for one of our many available roles during the online registration process.



What is the National Player Fee?
The $25 AYSO National Annual Player Membership Fee is a non-refundable / non-transferable fee paid once annually to AYSO National. Every player is required to pay this fee which covers the cost of running the nationwide program including insurance, development, and delivery of training programs.

The AYSO National Annual Player Membership Fee is automatically added to the first registration for a Membership Year (Aug 1st - July 31st). Payment of the Membership Fee entitles the player to a Player ID Card, all member benefits including being able to be placed on a team, insurance coverage and the ability to register for any available player program in any AYSO program.
