Extra

EXTRA


The EXTRA program is designed to provide a more competitive level of play for those players who possess the appropriate interest, skills, and commitment. The EXTRA program maintains AYSO’s core philosophies: everyone on the team plays at least 50 percent of each game; selection to teams is based on open and fair evaluations; and the teams are chosen to create a competitive balance.


Players participating in the EXTRA program will compete against EXTRA teams from other regions. There will be some travel involved, but most EXTRA games will be played within Section 11 (Northern Orange County).

TEAM FORMATION
Players will be evaluated by an experienced panel of judges. The region will determine the number of EXTRA teams based upon the number of EXTRA caliber players identified during tryouts and the availability of qualified coaches. We will want to make sure we form a team that is competitive with other EXTRA teams in Orange County. We will not form a team if we do not think it will be competitive. Teams will be made of players in single age brackets.

Please contact the Extra Coordinator at [email protected] if you have any questions.
