Welcome to Region 571!
AYSO’s grassroots programs begin with a community-based league, called a Region.  A Region can range in size from less than a hundred players to several thousand.  Each Region is run by a volunteer Regional Commissioner and a volunteer Regional Board.  The Ada / Cascade / Forest Hills area is home to Region 571.  Click here to learn more about our Region and why we're proud to be the #1 youth soccer program in the area.

American Youth Soccer Organization (AYSO) is a nonprofit and the oldest national youth soccer program in the United States.  Beginning with only nine teams by a handful of soccer enthusiasts, AYSO was established in 1964 out of a garage in Torrance, California, in an effort to ensure that American kids have the opportunity to be introduced to the beautiful game of soccer.

More than 50 years later, AYSO now has thriving programs for kids and adults in nearly 900 communities all over the country – and internationally in the Virgin Islands and Trinidad and Tobago – over eight million AYSO alumni, and a name that’s recognized nationwide.  We are basically the world's largest soccer club! 

Built on the power of volunteer support, AYSO brings together community members to coach, referee and support their local Regions with the ultimate goal of creating a fun, family-friendly environment where your child can grow and develop not only their soccer skills but their leadership and social skills for life.
