AYSO National requires that every player, in every region, including our Rivertowns region, pay an annual membership fee. The AYSO National membership fee is separate from the local registration fee. It is of utmost importance as it provides the mandatory insurance coverage for players, and it must be paid before a player may participate in any Rivertowns AYSO program or event. The fee for the membership year that runs August 1, 2021 to July 31, 2022 is $20.00. No matter what time during the membership year a player registers, it expires on July 31 and must be renewed each year.

The $20 fee appears in the shopping cart at the very end of the checkout process, and is a separate line item. It is is non-refundable and non-transferable. Even if your player unregisters from a program, the $20 cannot be refunded. That is how National AYSO has set the system up.
