Age Chart

AYSO Soccer calculates a player's age for each Membership Year (MY) based upon the year the player was born.  

The AYSO Membership Year runs from August 1  through July 31.  Participants play in the same Division during the Fall Season and the subsequent Spring Season.  Participants move up for the next Fall Season.  

If you would like to contact the Division Commissioner for your Division, please visit our Board of Directors page for contact info.

This age chart matches the age chart created by USA Soccer, which AYSO National follows.  It follows the most recent nation-wide player development initiatives of USA Soccer.

If you would actually like to dive down a rabbit hole of why they made this chart as it is, feel free to read this article: FIVE THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT BIRTH YEAR REGISTRATION and drill down into the links contained within.  

The age chart will change for FALL 2026 Registration in line with USSF and club soccer.
