AYSO Annual Region Affiliation

From AYSO Wiki

What is Annual Affiliation (Sanctioning)?

The annual affiliation process is an update to the Association Platform provided by each Region registering players. It will be performed once each Membership Year starting with MY2023. The update is completed by a current Board Member for the Region by clicking the link provided in the invitation.

Objectives:

  • Understanding of who is fulfilling the Board Member roles to communicate opportunities and critical updates more effectively
  • Create administrative access credentials in other AYSO systems
    • Admin Roles in AYSOU
    • Access rights in QuickBooks and Qvinci
  • Simplify the voting and proxy rights for National Association General Meeting (NAGM).

How Do I Affiliate?

Prior to the opening of a new Membership Year, the link to complete the process will be emailed to the Regional Commission and/or Regional Administrator, or you can access Annual Affiliation directly here. The link will also be published in The Insider and on BAND. Only a current Board Member can complete the Affiliation process. You will need your ASSOCIATION PLATFORM USERNAME (which may be your email address) to login.

Why Should I Affiliate?
