How does your donation help? 

CYSA is a non-profit athletic organization.  We strive to keep our fees low in order to be as inclusive as possible for all potential players.  But CYSA programs not only help kids learn soccer…

• Participation in sports teaches team work and work ethic, competitive skills and negotiating tools.
• The exercise associated with soccer helps kids become physically fit and (develop healthy habits that will 
• follow them into adulthood), hopefully it will become a habit that will continue with them as adults.
• CYSA fees and sponsorship dollars provide for maintenance of our fields, first aid supplies, soccer equipment, recreational uniforms and awards and discounted fees for players with financial need.
• We support the TOPSoccer program for children with disabilities.  This is a program that we provide completely free to participants.  CYSA completely covers the costs of uniforms, awards, training, equipment and volunteer training for this program.
