AYSO REGION 4 / AGOURA-WESTLAKE-OAK PARK-CALABASAS
Thank you for your interest in joining AYSO (American Youth Soccer Organization) Region 4!
For more than 45 years we’ve worked to create a fun, safe, family experience for kids and adults in and around the Agoura Hills, Calabasas, Oak Park and Westlake Village communities (there are no geographic restrictions and all are welcome).
Every person involved in the organization is a volunteer and we ask all families to lend a hand in one way or another. Through the hard work of our board and hundreds of volunteers like yourself we proudly are annually recognized with AYSO’s Platinum Award as a top-tier region. We’re excited to have you join all of us who make this one of the largest volunteer organizations in the area.
AYSO promotes a fun and family friendly environment.
This means everyone plays, teams are balanced, positive coaching, improved soccer skills and good sportsmanship.
WHO IS AYSO SOCCER FOR?
AYSO soccer is for everyone! It's sometimes called the world's largest soccer club for kids. All players will play and for the Fall we have age specific divisions for kids 3-19. Our EPIC program is people of any age who have physical or intellectual challenges. The 2023 fall season is for kids born between August 1, 2020 and January 1, 2005.
WHAT IS THE CORRECT AGE GROUP FOR MY CHILD?
Please click here for details on the age divisions.
AYSO and all of U.S. Soccer uses birth years to group players. The registration system will provide the correct age division for you to select for your child (assuming you are not signing up for the EPIC program for players with challenges).
We realize it can be confusing. The number corresponds basically to kids under that age (so 10U is 8-9 year olds).

YOU MAKE AYSO HAPPEN
We can only have as many teams as we have Coaches and Referees (10U and older).
No one is paid in Region 4. We're 100% volunteers - most starting out as parents like yourself with a limited knowledge of soccer. We love what we do, enjoy the friends we make, and are rewarded by the impact we can have on the kids and community.
If you'd like to help by being a Coach, Referee, Team Manager, or assist the Board with any number of simple needs please select "Volunteer" in your account to pick a position - you can always change your mind either way. Also consider helping our youth soccer league with tasks or small jobs by checking out the Other Opportunities page. These jobs help us provide soccer for children.
