Board of Directors & Volunteer Roles


Have you thought about getting involved in soccer? Our soccer program has over 400 players that come together and play throughout the Spring. This wouldn't be possible without our Board members and all our volunteers.                                                                           

We have many different positions to pick from and you know what....if you don't know much about soccer, that's ok, we would love to welcome you and appreciate any time you can offer to FYSA. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out and send us an email any time, ferniesoccer@gmail.com
