We also greatly encourage you to complete the required online Safe Haven course. 

“Safe Haven” deals with protecting children and the volunteers who work with them.  It is an internet based course that can be completed at your own time and leisure.  The league will be tracking your completion of this course and sending out reminders to those who still need to complete it.

The link to complete the Safe Haven online training course through AYSO is http://www.aysotraining.org/index.htm .  It will ask you for your AYSO ID # to begin.  If you have not received a letter containing your AYSO ID #, please contact the office. Once you receive you’re ID you are ready to take the course.  The Safe Haven course that you will need to take is "C001- Safe Haven for Coaches".
