Question 1

When is Registration?

Accepted Answer

YVYSO has two different seasons - the Spring Season and the Fall Season. 
 
Spring Season registration usually opens in January. Fall Season registration usually opens around May/June. Fall usually fills up quickly and we have to start turning people away due to being at capacity.  So, register early!

Question 2

Where or how do I register?

Accepted Answer

Registration can be done in one of two ways - online or in person (walk up registration).

If you would like to register online, go to www.yucaipasoccer.com/register and follow the links and prompts. You will be redirected to the Cal South website where you will either create a new account or login to an existing account. From there you can register and pay.

If you would prefer to register in person, you can register during one of our Walk Up registrations. We typically have 3-5 Walk Up registration periods. Visit the registration page to find out specific dates and times of Walk Up registration periods.

Question 3

What paperwork do I need to register?

Accepted Answer

For new players, you will need to present your player's birth certificate. If you register online, you can upload a copy of your birth certificate to your Cal South profile. If you register in person during one of our Walk Up registration periods, bring a your birth certificate to present to the staff.

For returning players who have played with YVYSO in the past, you do not need to present your birth certificate. We can verify your player's birth using the profile generated in the past seasons.

Question 4

How old does my child have to be to be able to play?

Accepted Answer

YVYSO accepts players between the ages of 4 and 17. For fall season, your child must turn 4 by July 31st. For Spring Season, your child must have turned 4 by July 31st of the previous year. However, the cutoff date dictated by Cal South may slightly vary season-to-season and year-to-year. Check the registration page to find out more for each particular season.

Question 6

What are the "Coach Request" or other player request policies?

Accepted Answer

To improve the registration process and reduce the enormous strain of specialized day requests on the registrar and scheduling team, we are encouraging NO requests.  However, we realize that church, other sports and activities, custody issues and other factors do impact your schedules.  As such, if you have an absolute conflict day or necessity in scheduling you MUST state and type that in the special request area (online) and/or tell the in person registration team member at in person walkups so they can add a note to the form.  If it is not stated during the season for which you are registering (past seasons' requests are not saved in the system), we cannot honor the request. We cannot change practice days after the draft at all (other than mistakes).

Both Cal South and D5 District are becoming increasingly more strict with their monitoring of parity across the leagues and post-draft switches (which we have scrambled every year to accommodate in the past). These switches are considered potential attempts to weigh or "stack" teams so we simply cannot accommodate post-draft changes.

Similarly, while we do our best to put siblings together and/or on same days, we cannot consider requests for extended family (like cousins) or close friends to play together.

If you specifically want younger siblings in different divisions from older siblings playing on the same day, state that if it is an absolute necessity, but we cannot guarantee the request will be honored.

If you have a child that is a retained/returning player where you as parent and a particular coach are making that child a property player for that coach's team, you must email the league Registrar and Director of Coaches to identify that arrangement.  A coach cannot simply pick a kid they like or they know is good. The league must have written form of communication identifying that a parent and coach have mutually agreed on the arrangement.  All of this is done to maximize balance and even consideration in team composition.

Fall Registration is Closed!
