None of us get paid to do what we do for our kids’ soccer program. We need the parents of each player to volunteer to help in some way. In other words, without parent participation, the kids cannot play. The Regional Commissioner makes it all happen (definitely in West LA) and is responsible for all aspects of the operation of the region. The RC organizes and supervises the regional board, convenes board and executive committee meetings, attends Area meetings and represents the region to higher levels of AYSO and to the community. This is not a job for the faint of heart and requires many talents and attributes, which are typical of the leading figure in any organization. LOCAL SCHOOLS' OUTREACH COORDINATOR Working with the Webmaster, the Local Schools' Outreach Coordinator provides sign up information and/or flyers each year to publicize the region's registration days.

Your player's registration will be guaranteed, absent any extenuating circumstances. Prior experience is not required.

REFEREE The referee is always in the middle of the action. We provide an AYSO referee-training clinic to make sure you are adequately trained and almost all of your equipment (cleats and a time piece are the exceptions). Our training is geared towards individuals with no prior soccer knowledge or experience. Referees set their own schedule, to allow them to enjoy their own childrens’ games, at an age level that is best suited to their training, experience and preference. The Region 70 West LA referee mentoring program has been created to provide all new referees with an experienced referee to guide and help them get comfortable on the field. Once you try refereeing, you'll be hooked! We ask that referees sign up to officiate a minimum of one game each week, at least two by October 15. However, you can referee more often if you like and less often if necessary. We are always in need of more referees. We can't play without them. Do you want more information? Please click here if you do. REFEREE SCHEDULER Referee schedulers are vital to the referee program. Each division, e.g., Girls U12, has its own scheduler. Working together with the Referee Administration Tem, schedulers are provided with game schedules and rosters of trained referees who are suitable for that division. Each week of the season, our schedulers work with their team of referees to ensure every game has a referee. Prior experience is not required, we provide the necessary training (just 1 hour). E-mail and some knowledge of a spreadsheet or word processing program is needed. Do you want more information? Please click here if you do.
