WELCOME TO THE 2020 BELMONT-REDWOOD SHORES AYSO FALL REGISTRATION
During these challenging times, all of us at AYSO hope that you are staying safe and healthy.
Keeping the safety and well-being of our players and their families in mind, and under the current state guidelines for youth sports, we are postponing the start of our season until January. Although disappointing, this action complies with state and county requirements and aligns our program plans with those of local schools.
It is still our hope and intent that we can have a first ever recreational “winter season” starting in January. To that end, we will keep our registration open and our player list active while collecting no fees so as to be ready in the event the season can move forward.
Families wishing to be removed from the potential winter player list can email us at [email protected] Meanwhile, please stay safe and know that we are doing everything that we can to provide a safe, quality soccer program as soon as safe and practical.
If you have any questions please email our Registrar.
GENERAL INFORMATION
The fall season runs from early September to mid-November.
AYSO National has changed registration systems to Blue Sombrero from e-AYSO. Registration and volunteer applications will now be done directly on our website. Users who have never registered on Blue Sombrero, will need to create new accounts. The old e-AYSO accounts are no longer valid. The new interface has much more advanced capabilities (including online payment) but you will need to re-enter your information for this year.
AYSO is changing from a school year registration to a birth year registration in order to align with US Soccer guidance. Players will be placed into a division that is defined by the calendar year of their birth. See below for more details. The new registration website will automatically place players into the correct division.
HOW TO REGISTER
Our registration is a two step process.
1) All players must complete Online Registration.
2) To finalize your registration, bring one (1) copy of the e-signed Registration Form to an In-Person Registration event (see dates below). If a new player, you must also bring a birth certificate or copy of their passport for age verification.
Note: All players are required to bring a signed concussion form to the first team practice/meeting.
