If you have been coaching for more than one year and still have not obtained an appropriate age level Coaching License as required by STYSA, AAYSA and NEYSO rules, please sign up ASAP.

All coaches participating in Western District and State Playoffs must have an appropriate coaching license. According to STYSA rules, if a coach does not have a license they may not participate in playoffs or state tournaments. A team without a coach may not participate.

Teams desiring to practice at local schools or other fields must submit a request to NEYSO. The field and goals must be inspected prior to use.

Please use your assigned space and do not assume that you may use an empty field. Teams may decide to cancel practice on any given day on their own. Until the goals are set up use the approximate area that you are assigned.
