What ages and program levels does AYSO United / Athletic SC Arizona offer?Teams are grouped across East Valley, Southeast Valley, and Northern Arizona, with girls and boys pathways each carrying regional coaching contacts. Programming differentiates Open League teams, which usually play most Saturday league dates, from Advanced League teams, which stack multiple matches on several preset fall weekends. Players may not play down in age; playing up requires selection to an older roster and may limit opportunities.
Where does AYSO United / Athletic SC Arizona train?East Valley teams train primarily at Arizona Athletic Grounds (formerly Legacy) and South Valley Junior High. Southeast Valley teams train primarily at Pecos Park in Phoenix. Northern Arizona teams train at Flagstaff-area sites that vary by roster. Tournament-only teams typically train at the high school affiliated with the coaching staff.
When does training start and how does registration work?Formal team training begins August 1. Coaches may add optional voluntary summer sessions, and the club offers a summer camp near the end of June to prepare for fall. After accepting a team offer, families complete registration through SportConnect at aysounitedaz.org. For tryout timing and open roster spots, contact the club administrator or the regional coaching lead that matches your area.
What does a season year of club soccer cost?Team fees bundle league level with a coach-selected tournament count—for example Advanced League plus one, three, or five tournaments—covering training, registration, and insurance within that package. Uniform kits generally cost about two hundred twenty dollars beyond the package. NLP2 teams add one hundred dollars for that league tier. Extra tournaments, video tools, equipment, or coaching stipends should be confirmed with the staff before the season starts.
What is the club’s mission and coaching approach?Athletic Soccer Club frames its mission as elite development grounded in respect, character, and belonging. The Arizona environment emphasizes fun, positive coaching, and parents recognizing effort, supported by structured training periodization, meaningful games, and tournament plans suited to each team. Coaches receive stipend support through a compensation program aimed at keeping fees manageable while attracting qualified leaders.
