Why are parents required to volunteer for a job assignment?
AYSO is an all-volunteer organization. Every AYSO coach, referee, board member, and other official is a volunteer. In addition to these roles, AYSO needs many other volunteers to help with field set up, equipment, photography, and other tasks. We ask that each player have a parent or guardian volunteer for one job for each child playing (except for the jobs of coach, referee, and board member which fulfill your volunteer requirements for all your children due to the greater time commitment involved).
