AYSO is described as a 100% volunteer-run organization, and financial assistance is available with a stated policy that no player will be excluded due to financial constraints.
Registration includes a team uniform with jersey, shorts, and socks, field use, and supplemental accident insurance for AYSO-sponsored activities. Required equipment that is not included consists of shin guards and appropriate footwear such as cleats; players must wear shin guards to both practices and games, and cleats are optional but recommended. The leadership team includes Region Commissioner Joshua Veltman, Treasurer Colin Jenks, Regional Coach Administrator Paul Welander, Regional Referee Administrator Raja Kapadia, Publicity lead Aly Gould, Child & Volunteer Protection Advocate and Safety Director David Rudman, Communications lead Julie Veltman, Social & Family Engagement lead Angie Poon, Equipment lead Phil Grant, and division coordinators Joshua Veltman for U12 Boys, U14 Boys, and U14 Girls.
