VOLUNTEERS
All AYSO volunteers need to register as volunteers every year. This includes coaches, assistant coaches, team parents, referees, field set up team and snack bar assistants. To register as a volunteer, you have two options:
1. Go to www.EAYSO.org .
2. If you are a returning volunteer, you can select the log in button. If this is your first time, you select the first time button.
3. Select the volunteer button on the right side of the screen.
4. Select the option that best fits your description i.e. returning volunteer, new volunteer.
5. Follow the steps on the screen and complete the information requested.
6. Print out two copies of the volunteer forms.
7. Sign both copies of the volunteer forms.
8. Mail both copies of the forms to AYSO P O Box 333, San Marcos CA 92079.
Once the CVPA receives your signed forms, you will then be entered into the system and your volunteer registration will be complete for the upcoming season.

-
