WELCOME TO THE 2020 BELMONT-REDWOOD SHORES AYSO FALL REGISTRATION
During these very difficult times, all of us at AYSO 108 hope that you are well and staying safe and healthy.
Although we are not sure whether the Fall season will happen, we will be prepared and ready to go if and when we get the green light. To that end, we are changing this year's registration process.
For the safety and well-being of our members in mind (players, parents, volunteers), and under the current shelter-in-place orders, we are canceling our traditional in-person registrations for the 2020 fall season. Instead, we will open our online registration on April 30, 2020, and sign up players on a “wait list” basis.
This allows us to keep a player list without collecting registration fees from families until we are certain that there will be a season.
Families completing “no cost” wait list registration by May 15th will receive the traditional early bird registration discount when fees become due under this process. The wait list is not an obligation to register should you change your mind in the future.
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 The old e-AYSO accounts are no longer valid.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.

REGISTRATION WAITLIST
If during registration, you receive a “Division Full” notification, you will be placed on a waiting list.

It is our goal to have every player who signs up play.
If you have any questions, please contact our Registrar.
