AYSO REGION 5 ALL-STARS

The All-Stars program provides players with demonstrated outstanding soccer ability, enthusiasm, and good sportsmanship an opportunity to participate on a team and compete against teams composed of players with similar qualifications from AYSO Area 11k (Huntington Beach, Fountain Valley, Santa Ana, Orange, Westminster and Garden Grove). The programs are carried out in January and February of each year and consist of three levels of competition:

  1. Section All-Stars – The Section All-Stars program is for 10U, 12U and 14U teams made up of the best players in the Girls and Boys Divisions of their respective Region. Each Region may enter one team in each of the six divisions. These teams are usually composed of the older players in the applicable division but may have younger players from that division who also possess the skills and attributes required of a Section All-Star player.  The area will conduct an Area 11K Section All-Stars Playoff Tournament (the “Playoff Tournament”) after the conclusion of round-robin “pool play” to determine the Area “Section All-Stars Champion” in each of the six divisions and to determine who shall represent the Area in the Section 11 All-Stars Championship Tournament.  The program is carried out in January and February of each year, and the Section 11 Tournament is held in early March.

  2. Area All-Stars – The Area All-Stars program is for 10U, 12U and 14U teams made up of the skilled younger players in the Girls and Boys Divisions of their respective Region.  Our Region may enter one team in each of the Boys and Girls 10U and 12U Divisions.  More than one team each may be entered in each of the Boys and Girls 14U Divisions.  Area will conduct an Area 11K Area All-Stars Playoff Tournament (the “Playoff Tournament”) after the conclusion of round-robin “pool play” to determine the Area “Area All-Stars Champion” in each of the six divisions. The winners at this Playoff Tournament level do not advance to play at any other level. The program is carried out in January and February of each year.

  3. Regional Stars – The Regional Stars program is a developmental program for 10U and 12U teams made up of both older and younger players in the Girls and Boys Divisions of their respective Region who have demonstrated excellent soccer skills and enthusiasm, but were not selected for a Section or Area All-Stars team.  Each Region may enter more than one team in each division.  Area may or may not conduct an Area 1C Regional Stars Playoff Tournament (the “Playoff Tournament”) after the conclusion of round-robin “pool play” to determine an Area “Regional Stars Champion” in each of the six divisions. If this Playoff Tournament is held, the winners do not advance to play at any other level. The program is carried out in January and February of each year.

For all three levels, games are typically held on both Saturdays and Sundays with the possibility of some playoff games being played on weeknights.

An All-Star player interest form will be distributed to all 10U, 12U and 14U families in September.  Interested players are selected by each All-Star team’s Head Coach with the help of the other head coaches from the same division and the division coordinator in early December.

Please note the number of All-Star teams in each division is highly dependent on the number of qualified and available coaches and referees.

As a result, priority for All-Star selection is given to players with parents who referee and/or coach.  In addition, Area 1C sets additional requirements on having a minimum number of “younger” players on each team.  More information about the All-Star program can be found at http://ayso11k under “All Stars”.

Coaches

An All-Star coach interest form will be distributed to all 10U, 12U and 14U coaches in September. Coaches for the All-Star program are selected in mid-October by a committee consists of: Region Commissioner, Coach Administrator, and Division Coordinators.  Coaches will be selected for a particular team based on a combination of the following criteria:

  • Ability to follow the six AYSO Principles
  • Experience
  • Coaching ability/skill
  • Volunteer history in the region
