The number of teams and age divisions will differ from Region to Region. Our Board has approved starting the Extra Program with 8 teams this year (one team in each division for Girls and Boys): U-10, U-11, U-12, U-13 with the possibility of adding a U-14 age division if there is enough interest. In future years there will be consideration given to the adding of more age divisions (this program allows team to be formed up to U-19).

Players who are interested in playing on an Extra team will need to fill out a Region 91 Extra Tryout form and attend tryouts for the respective age divisions (Tryout forms will be posted on our website and available at all walk-in registrations). The players will be selected by a team of neutral evaluators during these tryouts. We expect to hold tryouts over a two week period beginning in mid-May but we are still working out all of the scheduling details.

Any player can participate in the Extra tryout sessions as long as they are of the appropriate age for the division they are trying out for.

2011 Season is underway. Registration fee for the 2012 season will be posted sometime in April.

The Fall season will begin in August (like we do with the regular season) with games and league cup playoffs running through November/December. In addition, there will be opportunities for intersectional tournaments which we expect to take place in January and February.

Yes. Extra teams will be allowed to participate in pre-season tournaments and AYSO invitational tournaments, which will take place between November and June.

The total number of players will depend on the age division:
U10: 9 players
U11: 12 players
U12: 12 players
U13: 14-15 players
U14: 14-15 players

Gauranteed play time for your child. With AYSO Extra, each player is guaranteed to play 75% of the game, every game. The Extra program is covered by the AYSO umbrella and all applicable philosophies and guidelines.

There are NO referee fee's per game, all of AYSO's referee's are "unpaid" volunteers. There are no coach fees, all of AYSO's coaches are again "unpaid" volunteers.

Another big benefit however is the 6 philosophies that has made AYSO so successful in the past 44 years, as AYSO's focus is on the kids first. AYSO is a non-profit organization, which means AYSO is focused on your child's development, not on the bottom line.
The 6 Philosphies are:
Everyone plays (3/4 minimum)
Balanced Teams (balanced through competitive bracketing)
Open Registration
Positive Coaching
Good Sportsmanship
Player Development
