LEAGUE PHILOSOPHY
Chico Youth Soccer League (CYSL) was founded in 1973 with 254 boys and girls participating. CYSL now offers a Spring and Fall Season and has over 2000 youth, ages 5-13, participating in the Spring and Fall programs. CYSL is for boys and girls in the U6 - 14&U age divisions.
CYSL'S policy is to encourage the RECREATIONAL and PARTICIPITORY aspects of the game. We recognize there will always be competition in any activity in which a score is kept, however, CYSL's first principle is that RECREATION and PARTICIPATION come first.
CYSL's motto is that "EVERYBODY PLAYS". There are no tryouts. Everyone who signs up, on time, makes the team. No player on a team is to sit out more than half of every game. Coaches are pledged to this policy and the Board of Directors will enforce it. Most important of all, the League encourages a spirit of unpressured and congenial good sportsmanship among players, coaches and parents.
The Coaches Manual includes general information about the league in the form of questions most frequently asked, league rules, policies, procedures and our players code of conduct.
Want to become a Referee?
Chico Youth Soccer Leagues is looking for youth and adults who want to become referees. Referees must be at least 14 years old to apply, attend a 12 hour referee class, and purchase the required uniform and accessories. Referees are paid $8.00 per game. An application form can be downloaded (Word document) by clicking on the referees link to the left. For more information, contact Wes Hocking at 895-3518 (work) during the day or at 895-8187 in the evenings, or via email at whocking@sbcglobal.net
Team Assignment:
All players are assigned by random draw. Due to the size of the league, special requests for a specific team, carpools, friends etc. are NOT allowed. Teams are required to have at least one practice per week and not more than two per week. Practice times and location are determined by the Coach according to space availablity.
PLAYERS WILL NOT BE TRANSFERRED TO ANOTHER TEAM DUE TO CONFLICT OVER PRACTICE TIMES OR LOCATION.
Coaches are NOT permitted to recruit players without league authorization. If a team is short players, the coach must call the league and reguest a player from the waiting list. The first child on the waiting list will go to the team that needs another player.
Under NO circumstances may an unregistered player participate in a game or practice.
Board of Directors
CYSL is run by a volunteer nine member Board of Directors, mostly parents like yourself who are interested in contributing to their own child's development as well as that of other children in the community. CYSL does not have an operating office. You may contact the league by calling 894-1088 and leaving a message, by emailing cysl@sbcglobal.net, or by Fax at 894-8889.
Thank you for supporting CYSL.
