Scholarship Program
We are launching a new Scholarship Program for the Fall 2023 Season!
- The Victoria Youth Soccer Organization (VYSO) provides a limited number of scholarships to families in need so that all children can have the opportunity to play soccer.
- To be eligible, the family must demonstrate a need for the scholarship, such as by having low income, receiving assistance through a government agency, or by having recently experienced a financial hardship.
- There is not a set amount for each scholarship. The scholarship funds available will be distributed to all approved applicants based on need.
Banner Sponsorships = $240 Off Player Registration Fee!
Businesses and individuals have the opportunity to help support the Victoria Youth Soccer Organization (VYSO) through sponsorship. With the Banner Sponsor program, the business or individual purchasing the banner sponsorship can designate one player to receive a free REC registration or a discount off his/her Select player registration fee. The business or individual will also have their banner displayed during the soccer season along the fence at the Riverside Soccer Complex.
- For Select Players: the player you specify will be given a code he/she can use during online player registration to take $240 off his/her player registration fee.
