Coronado Youth Soccer League
Rec Program Overview

Welcome to CYSL Rec Soccer.  The mission for the CYSL Recreational Program is to provide the youth of Coronado and surrounding communities with an affordable soccer program that encourages technical development, good sportsmanship, and an atmosphere for having a good time while learning.  Our focus is on having fun and improving individual soccer skills. For our volunteers, CYSL Rec offers the opportunity to lead a team in a family oriented environment with the sole focus on the development of our young soccer players ages 4-12 years.

The Recreation Program is the foundation of Coronado Youth Soccer League. The program is designed to give each player the chance to play for the love of the game without the emphasis of high level competition and time commitment. The purpose of the Recreation Program is provide participants an opportunity to have fun, learn the sport and develop life skills including a love of the game.

Coaches

Teams are coached by a combination of volunteer parents and Coronado FC Coaching staff. All volunteer parent coaches are required to complete online Concussion Training, along with a background/livescan screening.

CYSL Recreational Soccer is committed to teaching youth the fundamentals of the sport. Our staff actively communicates with parents, volunteer coaches, and other area soccer programs to find new and more efficient processes to make CYSL Rec a better program for all. We also provide weekly training clinics, practice session support from the Coronado FC competitive coaching staff, and an opportunity for many players to participate in an All-Star recreational tournament outside Coronado at season end.

As a volunteer coach, you determine your practice schedule and time, and your child is placed on your team.

All coaches receive practice gear for use during the season, including soccer ball bag, soccer balls, practice pennies, cones and a complimentary shirt from CYSL.
