Riverton Youth Soccer Association

Riverton, Wyoming

About

Riverton Youth Soccer Association (RYSA) organizes youth soccer for families in Riverton and the Wind River Valley through its Riverton Rampage programs. Players can start in a low-pressure recreation league or move into traveling competitive teams that train several times each week and enter regional tournaments across Wyoming and neighboring states. The association emphasizes skill development, sportsmanship, and values that carry beyond the field.

Programs and age groups

Recreation serves children born on or before December 31, 2020, with no tryouts and all skill levels welcome. Spring 2026 recreation runs six weeks from March 30 through May 7, with U6, U8, U10, and combined U12/14 divisions grouped by birth years 2020–2014. Competitive travel soccer spans U8 through U19 for players ready for a higher commitment: families should expect at least one year in recreation first, a focus on improving, and possible tryouts when rosters are tight.

Recreation season structure

Recreation teams practice and play on weeknight schedules—U6 through U10 on Monday and Wednesday, U8 through U12 on Tuesday and Thursday—with sessions from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m. Registration includes a team shirt or jersey, volunteer coaches, and weekly practices and games. The registration deadline for spring 2026 is February 28, with the season opening March 30. Recreation registration is $59 for eligible birth years.

Competitive season and tournaments

Spring 2026 competitive play runs April through May with two to three practices per week set by each coach and four tournament weekends in the region. Player registration is $250 plus a separate uniform package of $131.99. Teams typically attend the home Rampage Rumble (April 18–19, 2026), Cody Shootout (May 2–3), Bighorn Mountain Cup in Sheridan (May 9–10), and Wyoming State Championships in Casper (May 23–25), with additional events such as the Stockman Magic City Classic in Billings or Jackson Hole United Cup when a roster chooses to enter. Exact tournament lists are finalized team by team.

Rampage Rumble and guest teams

RYSA hosts the Rampage Rumble spring tournament in Riverton on April 18–19, 2026, welcoming boys and girls teams from U8 through U15 in small-sided and full-field formats. Division entry fees range from $400 for U7–U8 4v4 groups through $730 for U13–U15 11v11 brackets, with birth-year guidance published for each band. The event is positioned as a central Wind River Valley weekend for competitive clubs visiting from around the region.

Mission and development approach

The association’s mission is to positively impact youth in the community by teaching soccer fundamentals while instilling character, teamwork, discipline, respect, and sportsmanship. Its vision calls for high standards for players, coaches, and teams so athletes can reach their potential on and off the field. Off-season soccer camps emphasize technique, confidence, and fun training blocks led by experienced coaches when camp sessions are scheduled.
