Wow, I didn’t realize that. I stand corrected. AYSO may not be a well recognized acronym.

I’m just not a soccer mom at all. Not sure it says anything more than I am out of the loop. Other moms in my area might recognize it but I do think the teams here are more commonly associated with US Youth Soccer, I think .
