Are you ready to take your involvement to the next level?
For over 52 years, Coral Springs Youth Soccer has been a cornerstone of our community. Our volunteer board of directors—also known as the Blue Shirts—has worked tirelessly to uphold the values and culture that define CSYS. Every one of our directors started as a coach and took on a larger role to ensure the league thrives for generations to come.
We have an incredible group of volunteers who make this effort both rewarding and fun. As we prepare the slate of directors for next season, we have openings and would love for you to consider joining us.
If you’re interested or have questions about what serving on the CSYS board entails, please reach out. It’s a privilege to continue this league’s legacy, and we hope you’ll join us in shaping its future.

Subsequent to the release of the 2025 playoff schedule there has been significant feedback from several parents, coaches and directors regarding the fact that the entire U12G tournament was to be played on M3. As we are all aware, M3 is in terrible shape as compared to previous years.

As we enter the midway point of the season, CSYS wanted to send out a quick note as to how the playoffs will be seeded and conducted.
Soccer Bowl Tournament seeding and general structure:
First Round: All teams will be placed in groupings based on their standings at the end of play on January 26th. When there are teams with fewer played games than others, those teams will have their most recent results removed until all teams have played the same number of games. Therefore, some games may count for one team and not the other with respect to playoff standings and seedings. (NOTE: ALL games for the entire regular season are used to calculate regular season division champions).
The U10s for both girls and boys will have a “RED” and “BLUE” tournament.
· For the girls there are 12 teams in 2 divisions. The top 6 teams will play in the “red” tournament and the bottom 6 teams will play in the “blue” tournament. The top two teams in each division and the next 2 teams overall qualify for the “red” tournament. Division leaders will be seeded 1-2 with division second place teams seeded 3-4 and the wild cards 5-6. The remaining 6 teams will be placed in the blue tournament and seeded 1-6 based strictly on total points regardless of division.
· For the boys, there are 22 teams in 4 divisions. The top 12 teams will play in the “red” tournament and the bottom 10 teams will play in the “blue” tournament. The top two teams in each division and the next 4 teams overall will qualify for the “red” tournament. Division leaders will be seeded 1-4 with division second place teams seeded 5-8 and the wild cards 9-12. The remaining 10 teams will be placed in the blue tournament and seeded 1-10 based strictly on total points regardless of division.
The U12 Boys will have a “RED” and “BLUE” tournament.
· For the boys, there are 17 teams in 2 divisions. The top 9 teams will play in the “red” tournament and the bottom 8 teams will play in the “blue” tournament. The top three teams in each division and the next three teams overall will qualify for the “red” tournament. Division leaders will be seeded 1-2 with division second place teams seeded 3-4, division 3rd place teams seeded 5-6 and the wild cards 7-9. The remaining 8 teams will be placed in the blue tournament and seeded 1-8 based strictly on total points regardless of division.
All other age groups will have a single tournament for all teams. In tournaments that have multiple pools, division champions will be placed in opposite pools with the remaining teams seeded regardless of original division.
Full details and tournament schedule will be distributed to everyone the weekend of Feb 1-2 via e-mail.
Due to midweek games on Wed Jan 15th and Thurs Jan 16th, Mon Jan 27 and Tues Jan 28 ALL practices for U10 age group teams are cancelled on these days. All other practices are still on.
Any players, parents, coaches, and directors that would like to participate in the Coral Springs holiday parade should gather at staging area # 47 on W. Sample Rd. just west of Coral Springs Drive, Wednesday Dec 11, at 5:30 PM. Players must be in uniform. Parents are encouraged to wear red. Coaches and directors should be in your uniform shirt. The parade will begin at 7 PM and end at University Drive. Also, we still have a couple of participant opportunities to hold the flags.

If your team plays at North Community Park at 8:30, your uniforms will be at the field for you. Check back here for further updates.
Contingency Plan
In the event that something happens, our plan B will be to use white t-shirts and pinnies for Saturday’s games.
We will know for sure on Thursday if this will be necessary.
How will this work?
Coaches will notify all players to show up with white t-shirts. Wear whatever socks they have or currently use in practice. One team will use pinnies. We must make every effort to have goalies in a different color. Coaches, bring pinnies if you have them.
