ABYS provides over 1,500 boys and girls between the ages of 4 through 18 an opportunity to play organized soccer every spring and fall. We are the largest youth organization in Acton-Boxborough and among the largest youth soccer Associations in Massachusetts.br br Our division directors, professional development coaches, and our parent and highs school volunteer coaches are at the heart of what makes this program among the most successful youth soccer programs in the state. They regularly meet and communicate by e-mail on a wide array of topics, primarily centered on the continued and steady development of ALL soccer players involved in the ABYS program. As a group, they make every effort to make open-minded, fair, and comparative evaluations of their players throughout the season and try their level best to match this skill with the best opportunity we can make available for each child going forward.br br One of the very best ways to have more impact on ABYS is to become more involved yourself as a volunteer. This goes for our coaches too! We are blessed with many volunteers who have played the game in their own youth, some at a very high level. We also have many who continue to play amateur league soccer through their forties and beyond.
