Here is some information about Vienna Youth Soccer:
The mission of Vienna Youth Soccer is to provide the opportunity for children of all abilities living in and near Vienna to be involved in a high-quality soccer experience where the player:
- is coached using the principles of Positive Coaching
- has fun playing the game
- receives positive support at all times
- feels like an important part of the team regardless of individual performance
- learns sportsmanship and “life lessons” that have value beyond the playing field
- learns age appropriate skills, tactics and strategies of the game
- plays soccer at a level commensurate with his/her individual ability, potential and interest
- is instilled with physical, mental and social growth
VYS offers a variety of training programs for coaches and players, as well as House, Travel, and Adult leagues and a TOPSoccer program.
VYS is committed to creating a positive culture in which coaches, parents, fans, officials and players have the tools and training to work together to achieve our mission.
- VYS was founded in the fall of 1974. The intention of the organization is to develop a spirit of cooperation and sportsmanship, and to develop skills in soccer
- VYS is organized for charitable and educational purposes within the guidelines of the Internal Revenue Service 501(c)(3) requirements. (Contributions are tax deductible.)
- Any parents or guardians who have properly registered their child in the program are voting members for a 12-month period from the date of registration.
- No child will be denied participation due to financial hardship. VYS has established a financial aid program for players.
- The House league registers approximately 2,800 players in the spring and approximately 3,000 in the fall.
- There are both fall and spring seasons. The fall season typically runs for eight weeks from September to November, and the spring season typically runs for eight weeks from April to June.
With a program of this magnitude, we depend heavily on our parents to volunteer to ensure a successful season. Please check out our Volunteer Job Descriptions to see how you are able to help run a smooth program for Vienna Youth Soccer.
