Region 20 of the American Youth Soccer Organization was chartered in 1972 to provide a fun community youth soccer program for the children of Santa Monica and the surrounding area. In AYSO, Everyone Plays! We emphasize balanced teams, fair play, good sportsmanship, positive coaching and player development. In Santa Monica AYSO, Everyone Volunteers! Everyone in Santa Monica AYSO Region 20, every parent, board member, coach, referee and team manager, is a volunteer.
AYSO is an all-volunteer and child-centric soccer community. Our philosophies separate us from other soccer organizations: everyone plays, balanced teams, open registration, positive coaching, good sportsmanship and player development.
