Team Parents




Team Parent/Kid Zone Advocate - Team parents can be of great help to

you during the season by handling team organization responsibilities, allowing

you to concentrate your efforts on coaching. Team parents can assist you by helping




(game schedules, snack schedules, team roster, weekly newsletters, etc.),

organizing team participation in Region fundraising and hosting team parties.

It is STRONGLY recommended that you recruit a team parent!




Encourage all of your parents to participate during practices, even if it just means retrieving balls or setting up cones.




Playing Time

AYSO’s Philosophy of “Everyone Plays” means that registered players will play One-Half of the game provided that they

are at the field prior to the start of play. If they arrive after the start of the game and during the first quarter, they

must play a minimum of two (2) of the remaining three (3) quarters. If they arrive during the second or third quarter, the

player must play a minimum of one (1) quarter.

The games are made up of two halves and a halftime break.

Age Group Game Duration
U-5 & U-6 10 Minute Halves Quarter breaks are called roughly halfway through
U-8 20 Minute Halves each half to allow players to take water and for coaches
U-10 25 Minute Halves to make substitutions.
U-12 30 Minute Halves Halftime breaks range from 5 to 10 minutes.
U-14 35 Minute Halves
U-16 40 Minute Halves
U-19 45 Minute Halves
Players should plan to arrive about 30 minutes before the scheduled start time for each game to

allow time for the players to warm-up and for the referees to check each player in.
