** To provide a more consistent and enriching experience for our youngest players, Region 1638 Rosena Ranch will be restructuring our Tiny Tots and 5U programs to align with the new AYSO Kickstart program. AYSO’s new program for players ages 3-6 replaces Playground and Schoolyard with a simpler, more flexible experience built around what young children love most: movement, imagination, exploration, and play. It uses a fun, jamboree-style format instead of traditional teams and schedules, allowing children to jump right into the action each week. There are no standings, no pressure, and no waiting around. With four small goals, live restarts, and game-like activities, every child stays active, engaged, and smiling from start to finish.
