Join the Regional Board

MY2026-2027 Regional Board

AYSO runs on volunteer power

This means registered volunteers run the local AYSO programs all over the country. Additionally, our National Board of Directors, National President, as well as every coach, referee, and Regional Commissioner – the list goes on – is a volunteer.
Due to the thousands of volunteers throughout the U.S. donating their time every season, AYSO is as successful and far-reaching as it is today.

AYSO’s grassroots programs begin with a community-based league, called a Region. A Region can range in size from less than a hundred players to several thousand. Each Region is run by a volunteer Regional Commissioner and a volunteer Regional Board. Without a Regional Board including several key and required duties a Region is unable to provide a youth soccer programs of any kind.

AYSO Region 232 is based out of Camp Verde and has been providing a Recreation Soccer Program aka Core Program since it was first established in the 1980s. Today the yearly program averages 100-150 volunteers and 700-850 players spread across the Verde Valley. Region 232 currently provides soccer to Camp Verde, Cottonwood, Clarkdale, Sedona, Cornville, Rimrock, VOC, and other surrounding unincorporated areas.

For questions related to becoming a Regional Board member, please reach out to [email protected] or visit ayso232.org to explore open board positions we are actively recruiting for.
