American Youth Soccer<br />
Organization (AYSO)<br />
425 was founded when<br />
the recreational soccer<br />
leagues from Glencoe, Kenilworth,<br />
Northfield and<br />
Winnetka combined their<br />
youth soccer programs and<br />
joined AYSO.<br />
Today, more than 1,200<br />
children between the ages<br />
of 4-14 participate in the<br />
program. AYSO 425 is one<br />
of the strongest AYSO regions<br />
in the country.<br />
AYSO is celebrating its<br />
53rd year as the largest<br />
youth soccer organization<br />

area in 1964 with nine<br />
teams. It was the dream of<br />
a group of devoted soccer<br />
enthusiasts who started the<br />
organization in a garage.<br />
Today, AYSO has 50,000<br />
teams and more than<br />
500,000 players nationwide.<br />
Its goal is to provide<br />
world-class youth soccer<br />
programs that enrich children’s<br />
lives.<br />
AYSO is supported by<br />
125,000 volunteers. Parents<br />
donate their time as<br />
coaches, referees, team<br />
parents, administrators and<br />
sponsors. Along with being<br />
a volunteer-run organization,<br />
AYSO is a partnership<br />
of the area parks<br />
departments, schools and<br />
the community.<br />

atmosphere for children.<br />
