Covid-19 Update
July 31, 2020
The Return to Play (RTP) status within the Madison Area Youth Soccer Association remains in Phase 2 of US Soccer's Play On Protocol. We are targeting an advance to Phase 3 on August 14, pending further review. A final review of that decision and confirmation to clubs will be communicated no later than August 12. Club versus club activities are restricted until the state progresses into Phase 3. (The Phase III: Grassroots Recommendation Guide can be viewed here.)
Please note, however, that in Dane County there remains superseding requirements: Games and competitions are not allowed between teams for medium (includes soccer) and high-risk sports. Games and competitions within teams are allowed for medium and high-risk sports if the games and competitions are modified to ensure physical distancing is maintained at all times. Click here for full details of Dane County Sports Guidelines and Requirements under the current order.
With regard to the Fall 2020 season MAYSA will continue with the league alignment & formation process but will delay the scheduling until, at the earliest, the week of August 24. US Soccer and local Health Departments must allow us to progress to league-type competition before we can move ahead with league matches.
Statewide, sanctioning for all remaining 2020 tournaments has been withdrawn and permission to travel outside of the state for tournaments will not be granted.
In light of some Wisconsin Interscholastic Athletic Association school programs deciding not to hold Fall sports seasons MAYSA is considering leagues for high school age boys.
MAYSA has been sharing regular updates with club leaders on topics such as RTP protocols, registration and billing. For specific questions regarding your club or team, please contact your club leadership.
Thank you to all players, parents, officials and club leaders for your ongoing patience and engagement during this challenging time.

MAYSA 'Spirit of the Game'
Spirit of the Game is...
teamwork - good competition - sportsmanship - FUN
For Players and Coaches
All events, tournaments, games and other activities sponsored by MAYSA and hosted at Reddan Soccer Park rely heavily on the “Spirit of the Game”.
What is the Spirit of the Game?
The Spirit of the Game is an emphasis on sportsmanship, fun, respect-for-all and quality of play over winning, rivalries or trophies. Highly competitive play is encouraged but never at the expense of mutual respect among competitors, adherence to the rules and the basic enjoyment of participating.
And Spirit of the Game is for Spectators too!
Spectating is more fun when you
- Know the Laws of the Game, including special adaptations and specific rules for any event or tournament.
- Appreciate hard work and quality of play over winning and trophies. Cheer for great plays and hustle, by either team.
- Set your own best example. Take the high road regardless of how others behave.
- Overcome obstacles. View adversity of any kind as a learning, parenting or mentoring opportunity and not a reason to complain.
- HAVE FUN! This is why kids play the game. In many surveys, asked why they play, “Winning” isn’t even among the Top 10 reasons.
Attitudes are Contagious
'Attitudes are Contagious' is a hardhitting video (created by US Youth Soccer affiliate, MA Youth Soccer) about how adults can affect youth soccer, particularly how their behaviors can affect the retention and maturation of qualified referees. Worth watching.
