Parents,
Welcome to AYSO Region 425’s U5 Program! We have put together a quick fact sheet about this division which should answer any questions you may have about the program. Please take a look at the information below:
Fall Season-The season starts Tuesday, September 6th, and the first games are on Saturday, September 10th. There will be no games the weekend of October 8th and the season ends the weekend of November 6th.
Registration-The registration fee covers the fall and spring seasons
Equipment-All players MUST wear shin guards to practices and games. Players will not be allowed to participate if they don’t have shin guards. Players can wear soccer cleats or running/gym shoes. Jerseys, shorts and socks, are provided by AYSO and will be handed out at the first practice and/or game.
Teams-There are no set teams for U5 players. On game days parents will take teams of 5 or 6 players and supervise games of 5 v. 5. UK International trainers will run a warm up for all of the players and they will be on hand to help parents coach the games.
