Why SCYSA?
It
might be fair to say that many don’t’ know very
much about the South Carolina Youth Soccer Association, about
the origins or about the many benefits and opportunities this
Association offers players, parents and coaches in the state
of South Carolina.
Since 1977,
the safety and success of organized soccer in South Carolina
has depended on SCYSA. Member benefits include insurance coverage
for players, risk management programs to protect children from
dangers, safety and coaching seminars, and the constant attention
to fairness and player development—all underlying values
of SCYSA. And
let’s not for get the most prominent aspect of SCYSA—LOT’S
OF SOCCER! >>MORE
