Davis AYSO

The final Friday of spring soccer is here this week! Games are only at Arroro Park, Sandy Motley Park, and Walnut Park because it's Celebrate Davis at Community Park!

Behind the scenes of soccer: tournament edition!

Davis World Cup is fueled by good sportsmanship, good vibes, and copious amounts of snacks and hydration for our check-in and referee volunteers.

A big thank you to our tournament committee volunteers, who make this year-end tournament (and fundraiser for our scholarship program) possible. Months of planning, and now we're 10 days away!

We have over 200 games in this year's Davis World Cup and game schedules are now released!

Teams: get your cultural exchange tokens ready
Coaches: submit your rosters
Referees: snag your spots early!
Spectators: just keep on keeping on
Administrators: prepare accordingly!

It takes a full community to pull off this tournament and we are so excited to have everyone on the field in just 15 short days!

Neighbors, classmates, fresh air, fun and soccer

Our kind of Friday night! Spring soccer 2026 is treating us well. 💙

Memories made ✅

Medal Monday for our 10UB Alliance Vipers! Congratulations to Coach Michael, Coach Michael, and the boys for a great tournament weekend.

It's Davis World Cup month! Details are starting to come together for our biggest weekend of soccer of the year. Divisions are finalizing, vendors are getting scheduled, tokens are being crafted, and the schedule is coming along. It all starts May 22!

And fun trivia fact, this is our 38th Davis World Cup!

Happy National Volunteer Week!

Join us this weekend in celebrating with some extra recognition! Help us celebrate the coaches, referees, team parents, and volunteers who make soccer in Davis possible.

Celebrate with us by:
1) Thinking of one coach, referee, or volunteer who made a difference in your life this year.
2) Sending them a quick message. A text. An email. A shoutout in the comments below.

Those small thank-yous are the fuel that keeps this community going 💙

It's game day for spring soccer and after some rain earlier in the week, it's shaping up to be beautiful out!

Kick offs are between 5-6:30pm in local parks. What a great way to end the week with our community getting some fresh air and fun

✅ Countries assigned
✅ Player pins and medals ordered (1464 pins!)
✅ Keeper Wars participation sticker created. Design hint: 🌕 👩‍🚀
✅ Referee in-service room booked
✅ Field reservations confirmed

That must mean we're getting closer to the 2026 Davis World Cup! A few divisions have 1 or 2 more spots but most at this point are full. See you at the end of May! What countries will bring home the gold this year?

The Lily Nisen Memorial Scholarship application window closes on April 24!

Lily Nisen played soccer from the age of six, and participated in Davis AYSO through high school. She was nurtured and loved by her mother, and assisted by many in the soccer community, both in AYSO and DYSL. She graduated from Davis High School in 2003 and then attended San Diego State University, majoring in graphic arts. Her life was taken from her in San Diego on Memorial Day weekend, 2004. After her death, many families have made contributions to AYSO in Lily’s name for a scholarship fund.

In selecting recipients of the scholarship, the awards committee would like to recognize individuals who share some of the following of Lily’s characteristics: prowess and skill on the soccer field, unselfishness, good sportsmanship and positive attitude. Although circumstances were not always ideal, she persevered and excelled.

Seniors! This is a reminder to apply for scholarships! Although most scholarship applications were due Friday April 3rd, there are still open scholarships and a few new ones.

Many/Most of the local scholarships are only for DJUSD students which makes it highly likely that you will receive a scholarship.
