History of Vienna Youth Soccer

VYS also sponsors an over-30 (years old) parent recreational league, primarily for parents and coaches of VYS players.  The parent league emphasizes understanding the game of soccer, learning soccer skills, non-competitiveness (no league standings are kept), and most of all, a fun athletic endeavor.

Players in VYS are divided into divisions and teams based on their sex and age, starting with U5, to U19 players.  Each age division has a commissioner who divides the players into teams, assigns coaches, determines the game schedules, and arbitrates any disputes.

VYS began in 1974 with only 17 volunteers on the board to operate and manage the VYS organization.  Today, VYS has nearly 50 volunteers on the operations committee to perform the numerous tasks and programs required to run an organization involving 3,000 players.  These numbers do not reflect the large number of volunteer coaches, assistant coaches, team parents, etc.  VYS has a mandatory volunteer program where parents must volunteer or pay a non-volunteer fee, in order for the league to function.
