✍️ Dear members of US Club Soccer, US Youth Soccer and AYSO, In 2017, the U.S. Soccer Federation decided to change age group formation by school year (Aug. 1-July 31) vs. calendar year (Jan. 1-Dec. 31). Since the change was made, we have been reviewing the impact on our sport, specifically for players of all ages and competitive levels. Over the past few months, U.S. Soccer, at the request of its Technical Development Committee, has engaged in a review of that decision. We support these efforts and appreciate their approach to engage Organizational Members, leagues and clubs in collecting feedback. Additionally, US Youth Soccer, US Club Soccer and AYSO have solicited and shared additional feedback with one another in an effort to make the most informed and appropriate decision for our sport. US Youth Soccer, US Club Soccer and AYSO have been in constant communication on the topic, recognizing the importance of consistency across the three biggest youth soccer organizations in America. 📢 We are committed to being communicative through this process and supporting all of you.

Not too long ago, Deborah Silveira couldn’t imagine being a referee. She was a collegiate player, after all. Protesting calls, not making them, seems more natural for athletes. But when Deborah considered life after her playing career, she knew she wanted to stay involved in the sport. This could be a way to give back to the game, stay in shape and earn some cash. So, she gave it a shot, and now she’s hooked. Deborah has caught the eyes of FIFA referee pros and mentors who think she has what it takes to advance in her referee journey. Remember her name. We’re rooting for you, Deb! #BiggerThanSoccer
