It is a major goal of FYSA to provide a safe environment for our children to enjoy the game of soccer. To this end, FYSA has in place a risk management policy, Kid’s Safe, for the protection of its players. FYSA’s risk management policy requires that every adult member that has contact with or access to our players and/or their confidential data must be cleared through a national background check. This action is for the protection of not only FYSA and its affiliate members but ultimately our most precious resource, the children entrusted to us.

As such, FYSA requires that every affiliate register any and all adult members in order for an annual criminal background check to be conducted.

Transfers and Releases Memo

Any questions regarding the transfer or release of players and/or coaches should be directed to registrar@fysa.com.

FYSA’s desire is to simplify player registration. There are third party vendors that permit online registration for players. These vendors allow affiliates the ability to have players registered electronically and collect payment without pieces of paper. For affiliates to be able to use these services and be in compliance with FYSA rules, FYSA has created guidelines. Vendors that have agreed to the terms set forth by FYSA will be allowed to use the term “FYSA Compliant.” Affiliates who register their players through these vendors will not be required to have on file an “ink on paper” original parent signature.

FYSA is not approving nor recommending these vendors or their services, nor will FYSA be involved with any financial agreements between the vendors and the affiliates. The vendor has simply agreed to all FYSA specifications regarding player upload protocols and parental waiver language.

Vendors who wish to be considered "FYSA Compliant" may contact the FYSA office for a copy of the Agreement.

FYSA Compliant Vendors as of 11/19/09:

As of March 4, 2010, FYSA has registered 92,823 players and 15,015 coaches for the 2009-2010 seasonal year.

FYSA registration rules do not have any “rostering” rules that limit the number of players on a given team. The rules for specific competitions may have  roster rules regarding a maximum of players( e.g. National Championship rules have roster limits of 18-22 players, and no more than 5 previously rostered players) .These imposed limits are only relative to teams participating in those events.  Unless a team is participating in a league competition that has rostering rules, the teams are free to be formed in the manner that best suits the team and or the competition.  continued...

FYSA now has an “Event Roster” that will enable Registrars to create a roster with guest players from within their own club and have all the players appear on one form.  This roster can be used whenever an “official roster” is requested. Only persons with Registrar status can complete this roster.
