The Fall session dates for the Skokie AYSO 2009 - 2010 Season will be September 13th through November 1st.

Parental Involvement

Parents or a designated guardian MUST attend practice with U6, U8 and U10 players. Our coaches are volunteers who will help your child learn to play soccer. They are not childcare providers.

Cooler Weather

If the weather is wet and cool please feel free to have children wear long sleeves under their soccer uniforms and (if you feel this is needed) sweat pants under their soccer shorts. Please keep the uniform on the outside. Thanks.

It is important that ALL parents volunteer in one capacity or another. AYSO works because of the dedication of our volunteers. There are many different ways to support AYSO. Send us an email or give us a call (847-676-AYSO) if you want to find out how you can become a volunteer.

Registration for the 2009 - 2010 season has ended. However there may be a few openings for some divisions. If you have an interest in any possible openings for the coming session, please sign up on our Waiting List.
