Arrange a team outing

Sep 21 – LA Galaxy vs Vancouver Wave

Buy tickets for your team from Region 13, and tickets will be sent to you via the AXS app a few days before the event. We will sit on the grassy hill under the scoreboard, which is a special treat. You can even bring your dog if you get a special ticket: call Michael DeMarco in the LA Galaxy ticket office at 310-630-2238, or write mdemarco@lagalaxy.com.

Sep 21, 2024, 7:30 pm kickoff in Carson, the Galaxy play the Vancouver Wave, and we have great seats in the shade. Bring the whole team. Tickets are $25, and so is parking. Location: Dignity Health Sports Park, at Cal State Dominguez Hills in Carson. Take the 110 or the 710 to the 93, exit at Avalon, head south, turn left on Victoria, and follow the line of cars heading into the campus.

Be a great sports parent

Sports let parents give kids space to try something new. Remember, it’s just a game, and we play it for fun!

What youth coaches can learn from Gregg Berhalter (head coach of the USMNT)
My teammate shot high with a golden chance to score and our coach screamed at him, “Come on, David! You gotta shoot low!” David turned to the sideline and screamed back, “Don’t you think I know I missed!” The players on the bench tried hard to suppress their laughter and David became our hero for having the guts to yell back at our coach.

The disconnect between spectators and referees
No coach has ever coached, and no player has ever played, a mistake-free game in any sport ever. Why do we expect perfection from officials? 

The ride home is not a teachable moment 
Numerous researchers have asked athletes of all ages and abilities what was their least favorite sports moment, and their answer was nearly unanimous: after the game and the conversation on the ride home.

How to deal with a strongly competitive child
Being strongly competitive means a kid plays hard, takes the game seriously, and hates losing–all good things for an athlete, but many super-competitive kids may also be way too hard on themselves. 

Power struggles in boys with ADHD
If your son has difficulty being flexible, he is going to get into more power struggles with you because his brain can’t figure out when being flexible may help him get what he wants. You can’t teach flexibility when a child with ADHD is escalated. Trying to reason or argue with him is not going to help.

Rejection sensitivity
If there is the slightest possibility that a person might try something new and fail or fall short in front of anyone else, it becomes too painful or too risky to make the effort.

Rough schedule

May: Families register. Coaches, referees, and team managers can get a head start on online training over the summer.

What training you need: https://ayso13.org/dashboard
Apply to volunteer: https://ayso13.org/apply

June: Division coordinators start to confirm volunteer roles

July-August: Coaches and referees take their in-person classes

August: Team manager orientation, parent orientation, division volunteer briefings, team assignments. If you don’t hear from your coach by 8/14, please contact your division coordinator. Practice schedules will be sent to coaches the week of 8/28. There are always a few kids who have schedule conflicts with the practice day. Tell your division coordinator what days you are available and chances are there’s someone who will want to trade teams with you.

September: Soccer starts after Labor Day!
