Cedar Valley Youth Soccer Association

The CVYSA is implementing a Game Management form to ensure the best possible environment for our players, coaches, officials, & parents.  All coaches will receive "6" hard copies of the Game Management form.  Each team should find 1 volunteer parent to serve as a Field Marshall for each game.  The hard copy is to be completed during the game, then that information should be transferred to this online document.  Thank you for your input, have a great season!!

The CVYSA Recreational League, the CVYSA's largest program, is designed to provide an opportunity for any youth who wants to play soccer to be able to do so.

Playing in the Rec League builds a love of the game and teaches soccer basics to players U8 through U19. All registrants are placed on teams in their home communities through random distribution, rather than selection based on ability or commitment. Teams are coached by parent volunteers. They play six games per season, all in the local area, and many also participate in the local year-ending Cedar Valley Cup tournament. Players are assured of at least one-half of each game in playing time. 

Communities can stop by my house for any uniform needs starting Saturday April 7th. Call ahead please! 841 Hunter Drive Evansdale. From Hwy 20 take Elk Run exit to stop light and turn left on Doris Drive. Go past the Flying J truck stop and take the road to the right one block into the new housing development. My house is the second house of the only two houses in the middle of the block. 

The Recreational Soccer League is designed to provide playing opportunities for any child that wants to play soccer. Teams are coached by parent volunteers, players are randomly placed on teams within their community, and all players are guaranteed to play in at least half of every match regardless of ability. The emphasis in Recreational soccer is on participation, skill building, and sportsmanship not on competition or winning.

Teams are formed in 2 year age groups that are designated as Under 08, Under 10, Under 12, Under 14, and Under 19. The players age division is determined by their age as of July 31 before the Fall season. For example, a player who turns 8 on May 15 would be placed on an Under 10 team for the following Fall and spring. With few exceptions, recreational players will play in their designated age group. All recreational league players must be at least age 6 as of July 31 before the fall season. Younger players are encouraged to participate in the Under 06 Academy

Registration occurs annually in April and May for the following Fall and Spring seasons. The teams are mostly the same for both seasons in that playing year. Under 19 registrations are for the Fall season only.
